Good morning, just been over the latest suggestions, thanks for those.
Firstly, I tried turning on the numeric overlay and thought I was in luck as the indicator lit but the character combination didn’t work. Ctrl-U didn’t work either.
Le Penguin suggested I may have plugged in the keyboard after switching on, so tried it again – nope. Then…………I came to the awful realisation that, in the evening murk, I had been plugging in the Apple mouse and not the keyboard
I’m all booted up now, so fettling the password shouldn't be an issue.
I’ll let you all have a laugh at my expense
