So..my retired father got his first ever computer yesterday. I spent quite a bit of time setting it up for him, and then explaining about eg the mouse cursor.
So.. that's been fun. It's actually going quite well - and if I set up a premium rate number for my home phone I could get quite wealthy on his questions

Still, if you are going to lose control, flipping over on top of two parked porsches is about as fun as it gets.
