[LUG] Follow up to the upgrades thread

[Neil via list <list@xxxxxxxxxxxxx>]

I thought I had better put this on a new thread.. My reason for asking 
about upgrades previously was my confusion about upgrading libreoffice. 
I have had a lot of help, for which many thanks.
I have been thinking about this, and it has occurred to me that there 
may be a simpler way, for me at least.
I do use libreoffice, but only writer and calc. Perhaps that is 
overkill. I could perhaps use a couple of stand alone packages instead. 
In the past I have use the gnumeric spreadsheet which,for me, would be 
fine. My spreadsheets are not complicated at all, nothing fancy, so that 
should be OK. So I have downloaded it and will look at using it instead 
of calc.
What I would like please, is suggestions for replacing writer. I don't 
need anything complicated, the most would be some tables. So if anyone 
has any suggestions please?  Oh, not abiword, I don't get on with that 
one at all.
Thanks for any help, again. And this time I will remember, my distro is 
Xubuntu 16.04 LTS.
Regards,

Neil
