HI  Jennie, Thanks for your message, good to hear from someone in the senior 
citizen bracket. I have been using a computor for about four years, mainly for 
sending and receving emails to keep in touch with family. I receive photos of 
my great grand children  some of which I print off large to make a display on 
my kitchen wall. I also use the compitor to write short stories and anecdotes 
etc. for a creative writing group to which I belong  as it is impossible for me 
to read or wtite using  handwtiting. I was not a typist but I did learn to use 
a typewriter when I was in my forties. However  I was badly ot of practice when 
I started to use "word" on the computor. I have a large key board and monitor 
which help, but I am still not very speedy. A few other things I find useful, 
scan and read for instance, but I have not had a lot of success with the 
internet I do not seem to be able to use the links on a website. I am still 
getting used to Guide Chat and am glad when my name pops up so I have somrone 
to reply to. Love and  Best wishes Elizabeth

Hi Elizabeth, loved your short story, been there,done that and that was a good 
night.
Please tell me how long have you used a computer ? were you a typist ? I 
thought that at 80 I wasn't doing too bad but you put me in the shade
I do get fed up with older folk who don't even try to learn, you must admit 
Guide makes it easy.
