So inspired by this recent thread we thought we'd do a quick poll. Please please can you fill it in you lovely people, at less than 5 mins it's way less homework than usual. (Plus if you do you'll be entered into this week's comp to win a Dyson!)

I'll do it but under no circumstances do I want a fecking Dyson - they are rubbish!

A box of chocs would do

Ok promise chocs if your name's pulled out of the hat Gobbledigook - what sort?

GobbledigookisThrifty · 30/09/2008 21:39

Ha ha! Oooh, any sort!

GobbledigookisThrifty · 30/09/2008 21:39

Or a bottle of VC

JohnsonsShampoo · 30/09/2008 21:40

Oh....I blew my Dyson up last week. I need a dyson.

unknownrebelbang · 30/09/2008 21:40

I need a new hoover (said in the voice of a stroppy child needing a new toy and if I win it, I don't care what make it is!

singyswife · 30/09/2008 21:41

Have done it and I need a new hoover.

micku5 · 30/09/2008 21:42

fryalot · 30/09/2008 21:44

Done.

I need a new cleaner; pipe on mine has a big hole in it last time I looked.

Bowddee · 30/09/2008 21:46

I've done it too - and I need a new Dyson as DH has broken mine.

JohnsonsShampoo · 30/09/2008 21:46

Well I think that I read that there are 4 to be won...so I there are enough to go around

compo · 30/09/2008 21:48

I need a new dyson too, the wheels of ours keep falling off and it is tres annoying

Flamesparrow · 30/09/2008 21:48

done

compo · 30/09/2008 21:49

and I've never won a MN comp despite being on here since 2003

WendyWeber · 30/09/2008 21:53

Oh that's not FAIR! I don't have a primary aged child any more but I have very strong opinions about primary school homework.

WendyWeber · 30/09/2008 21:55

Is it OK if I do it & lie about having one?

fryalot · 30/09/2008 21:55

WW - couldn't you hijack someone else's primary age child and fill out the survey with them in mind?

MNHQ
JustineMumsnet · 30/09/2008 21:55

Oh that's fine WendyWeber - just answer for one of your kids with the answers you would have given for them at that age (or all of them indeed and enter more than once). Does that make sense?

Flamesparrow · 30/09/2008 21:58
JohnsonsShampoo · 30/09/2008 21:58

Can I enter twice even if my DDs are DTDs and therefore the same age...it won't look like I am cheating wil it?
