How far have you gone to a get a mobile phone connection?

We were looking at the places in Gloucestershire where it can be a bit of a challenge. Where have you ended up trying to get a signal? Here are a few examples from today's show...

Alistair in Shurdington was on Holiday in East Prawle last year and to get a signal we had to stand on a bench on the village green and then we broke it!

Katie Fforde tweeted us to say when she used to have a house in Scotland there was a time when you had to stand on a rock (only big enough to stand on 1 leg on) in the loch near her house.

Amy tweeted us from the Lake District and says the signal is better from the third step of her stairs facing towards the wall!

Adam - has to stand on the sofa in lounge...

Liz emailed...When I lived with some friends of mine for a few months the only place I could get any network was in the far corner of their back bedroom. It had bunk beds and I had to lie down on the bottom bunk to make calls! It was a bizarre time as I was in the middle of a divorce and had to speak to my solicitor on frequent occasions whilst prone!
Have you got any wonderful stories of where you have ended up getting a mobile signal...post a comment or email me at cummings@bbc.co.uk
