I set up Skype for Web (SfW) on my laptop, running Firefox, and as RedGreen925 reported things do seem to work. So I shall abandon the Skype app and use the online version.
In the interim between my last and this post I have lost my only important Skype social contact, so my future needs are likely to be for occasional contacts as necessary with tax offices, banks, etc, that do arise sometimes. So SfW should be quite satisfactory. The only concern for me is whether or not my funds will be transferred and available for me to use in SfW to pay for calls to landlines; I have not figured this out as yet.
I guess that now I can delete the Skype app on my laptop and so avoid the annoying delays when updating.
So once again with your generous help, it seems that my problem is solved. Very many thanks to you all. Tom.
