I have had a wonderful evening at a book launch in the City. I started to write blog post offline and when I was ready to post… The mouse control failed to work! Very frustrating. It won’t allow me to set up the keypad as an alternative and my old mouse is packed in a box somewhere.
The matter is made worse because I am working tomorrow and despite getting maps and directions over the weekend, I wanted to do a walk through on Google streetview.
Hoping it will work later.

Hope it rights itself. Have you tried unplugging and plugging it back in?
Yes and logging back on. Reboot. Install. The works. Mr G had it diagnosed. Just need to use external mouse.
Ah. I prefer to use an external mouse anyway. I find it awkward using the laptop one.
