I find that when I am typing a block of text, usually with two fingers
and my head down (ie. not looking at the screen), often when i DO look
at what i have typed some of the later text seems to have been inserted
into prior text. I can either delete and re type at the end or
copy/paste. I am not the world's quickest typist and this slows me down
even more. It also occurs when a "proper" typist uses my machine.

Any ideas why this happens?

Are possibly touching the touchpad at all while you type? This might be
moving the pointer and setting the insertion point elsewhere.
