Do you remember

trying to master the mouse?
As part of the course I'm doing I have to train someone in a workplace situation. I decided I'd teach Mum to open, read and reply to email - then she can get the stuff from her work that she misses out on by being part-time.
Well.......
"Click on Start...the green button in the bottom left corner."

........
down.....

.........
up.
"Yes, now up to where it says "email" and click on that."
up
.......
up.......

.........
down......

Perhaps the difference was that no-one was really watching me while I fought to master that rodent.

She got there eventually.
