Only when in the subjective case.
We are also taught to use "me" when in the objective case, such as the object of a preposition; by me, to me, for me, with me, through me, around me, before me, after me, etc.
Gail Cusack, the trick is to remove the other person from the sentence, and then see which sounds correct. Would you say "please hand the letter to me", or "please hand the letter to I"? You'd say, "Please hand the letter to me." That's how to tell the difference.
You might use "me" under other circumstances, e.g. "Gail and me went to the shop." Remove Gail and try it as "Me went to the shop." Doesn't sound right, so in this instance, you'd say "Gail and I went to the shop."
Dane Kiddie, It seems the Brits are not well-schooled in the KING'S English (should be possessive). I see many more errors in the writings of Brits and I do in the writings of Americans.
