How to access my digital pins after installing motor shield

Thanks for the reply Peter, but how do I plug into these pins? I realise they aren't "used" per se. I.e, no, I'm not using a servo, so how do I physically plug into 9/10? Or do I have to solder to the "stumps"?

And of course, you're right about the analog pins. I've just been more comfortable (in my limited experience) in using the digital ones.
