Help mumsnet and win one of 2 great holidays

Folks are always asking how they can help mumsnet (which is lovely and much appreciated). Well we have two surveys running at the moment and it would be great (if you haven't already) if you could fill them in. It only takes a minute and you also stand the chance of winning a holiday.

The first is for parents of under 5's - so sorry to those with older kids. It's a survey about kids' eating habits and was commissioned by Humzingers. Filling it in automatically enters you into a competition to win a holiday with Canvas Holidays and you can find it here

The second is from an ad in Mums Best (the product review guide book available in Mothercare). There are only 3 questions - so it should take about 2 minutes and the prize is a really fantastic Mark Warner holiday with childcare.
They're looking now at response rates to this survey to see if they want to do the same again - so if you want more chances to win in the future (and you want to help mumsnet get a repeat booking!) please click here

Big thanks

BROWNY · 29/11/2005 10:39

Done mine too - here's hoping!

sparklymieow · 29/11/2005 10:40

NOoooo stop I want to win!!!! No one else enter ok??!!!

MistleToo · 29/11/2005 10:41

done!

LIZS · 29/11/2005 10:48

Great idea but the Mark Warner holidays is only valid in May or June so that rather counts out those of use with school age kids

Miaou · 29/11/2005 10:48

I was going to enter the second one but then I read the small print - family of four (there are five of us), you have to make your own way to Gatwick (we live in Scotland), and you have to take the holiday in May or June next year but not during half term (I'm not taking kids out of school). - would like to have helped out.

And although I have an under 5 I can't enter the first comp as he isn't weaned yet therefore not eating!!

Anyway, bump for others who can enter.

done them both too.

Marina · 29/11/2005 11:35

Yes, that's a bit naughty of Mark Warner, but not terribly surprising I suppose.
Have done both Carrie

Tinker · 29/11/2005 11:38

Oh. Am in same position as Miaou. Can't answer first one, don't want/can't take 2nd one.

LIZS · 29/11/2005 11:41

It is a bit counterproductive if the "prize" doesn't match the needs of the target audience - shame on MW but ultimately it will be MN that suffers.

Wills · 29/11/2005 11:44

Both done.

Marina · 29/11/2005 11:49

Tinker · 29/11/2005 12:10

Marina, she's not even spitting out, it just stays static in her mouth, not interested. Yes, thanks, got book (did send email when I got it)

Marina · 29/11/2005 12:15

Message never got through but it's still Yahoo vs Tiscali at home so that might explain it! Glad it got there

sweetkitty · 29/11/2005 12:15

Done!

Marina · 29/11/2005 12:16

Of course MW won't, they are one of many holiday cos that crank up the prices disgustingly in the school hols. Give away a holiday worth ££££ when it is only £££ in June or September? Not likely.
It's one of the reasons we do gites - the prices do go up, but for a shorter period, and not by as much. If you holiday at the end of August you can get excellent bargains.
