The new version or maybe a new version of Google is annoying me quite
deeply at the moment.
If I type anything into the search window at the top the browser goes
off to find stuff before I have even finished which is really
distracting! AND for some reason i have a time lag as i type in the text
since upgrading rather like the olden days when the computer had to
catch up with watch you were keyboarding

and NO i don't want google's idea of "relevant" to what i might be
searching for - it never is

Janet, go to Preferences and turn 'Google Instant predictions' to off, you can also set other preferences there as well such as opening each selection in a new tab to save using the back button. Don't forget to click on save preferences when you're done.
