Thanks to George Foot, I have realised one thing wrong in my
code. Alas the result hasn't improved. Still the same thing happens. 

: Perhaps somebody can tell me what I'm doing wrong in the following

: I'll not always jump to the previous one.

: What happens for me is it says "About to insert me...", I press
