        I had a simliar problem, got one letter stuck on top of another & couldn't shift it.

        Think it should be called "How knackered is your mouse"

            I am 34 years younger than my actual age :dbgrtmb:

            One of the anagrams with me was also stupid as it showed I had got one letter wrong. That's an impossibility!!!! So I took the wrong letter away and put it back and I got it right :doh:

              Right on both counts Clueless. Only took you 4 minutes to calculate that one, nowadays that probably qualifies you for an A* in GSCE Maths.

                In a previous job (I should point out my job is to develop software), a user reported a 'major fault' with one of our in-house applications. Our app was refusing to let them enter a certain date. Several people, including the original user's manager had had a look before allowing them to contact us in IT directly about this 'major issue in a business critical application'.

                It took a lot longer to explain to the user in simple terms why the system was behaving that way, than it did to fix the 'fault'.

                The date they were trying to enter was 29th February 1971.

                      I've said this to you before Mr Shiney:
                      "no flies on you are there!"

                      That's not cheating Shiney, it's lateral thinking :blue thumb:. It just says hit the stars, doesn't say you have to move the cursor does it?

                      I regularly use brain training on my ds....gift from my niece. Started off with quite low scores but now I'm very good. Prob practice. Also got sport training on it. These "games" are good because they quicken both your thinking and reflexes.
