might as well upgrade then, its quite frustrating to not be able to build a simple object.

@ Sluggs, thanks for the help and encouragement. I found a Worm tutorial and managed that even if the poor thing looks a little bug-eyed.
I've gone back to the eggplant and made a lot more progress but am stuck where others seem to have had some trouble and that's with the bendy bit. The stem bends OK and looks OK but the bottom of the bend becomes disjointed from the bottom bit of the plant. I've tried about 30 times now.
I know I ought to be able to do it by following the tutorial exactly, but I don't seem to be able to. I'd be happy with just one bend! If any of you who had trouble with the bend and resolved it see this, I'd appreciate it if you could remember what steps you might have taken that are not explicit in the tutorial. I would really like to get this one finished and then get back to Dromed.
And if anyone is writing beginners tutorials and would like them to be idiot-proof, you're welcome to run them by me first. :)
Well I've successfully bent the stalk of an apple now but can't do the darned eggplant.

Wow, this thread is almost long enough to deserve its own subforum.
