Hi everyone! Thanks for all the comments and input, it was great to see so many of you get involved! The competition is now closed, and any winners should have received an email from us confirming their prize so get checking. Happy New Year and here's to the next one!

My personal preference is only to tile the necessary areas in a bathroom especially in the UK, a totally tiled bathroom will feel much colder and harder. It's also possible to wallpaper in a bathroom as long as the ventilation is good and you coat the wallpaper in a wallpaper matt varnish, 4 coats rolled on will protect it (see pic.). The bathroom scheme all depends on your personal preference and how you want it to feel e.g. calm and serene or dramatic and exciting. Match in the vanity colour (see tips from Man About The House) for a calm palette.

Being disabled I find being able to do my weekly shop online invaluable. I used to use this service when I lived in a busy built up area, and found that it was just as cheap as shopping in town by the time you'd paid for parking. Now that I live in the countryside, I find it even more cost, and time effective, as it's an 8 mile journey to the nearest town. My husband then does a run once a week into town to pick up odd bits from Aldi as unfortunately they don't do an online food shopping service as yet. It is VERY rare to have a problem with short dates, or out of stock items, as there is a facility when shopping where you can indicate what you would like as a replacement should your item not be available. You can also request how ripe or otherwise you would like fruit and vegetables, so I really can't understand why you would want or need to shop in store anymore.

Beano, all my tech is stuff I get from family/freecycle so nothing is permanently installed. A Google thingy in the back combined with an old BT box makes this old telly 'smart', but when it dies there'll inevitably be another generation of obsolete tech being thrown out which I'll gratefully take off people's hands. I'm just as reliant as consumer capitalism as everyone else, just more of a bottom feeder. The remote control for the Google hub works through the logs BTW ;-)
