They're not all bad after all.
It used to be the case with me, that when I got my first computer back in the dim and distant past.
I used to shout for Nicola to come and sort out my mistakes…or teach me how to do things.
Now, it is quite the reverse.
While I do not consider myself to be anything like an ‘expert’….I can usually sort myself out….sometimes with the help of Google and sometimes with the aid of YouTube.
These days it is possible to learn almost anything thanks to these devices.
