yes I plan to do that soon ,  as soon as I get a bit of coin I will give it a try , it's just the first run is going to be a nit of a learning curve to try and find out exactly whats going on .

I have another question ( scenario )
let's say I have .5 bitcoin in my wallet and I need to send .25 bitcoin to someone .   then after I send the .25 bitcoin to the other person , do then need to move my remaining 2.5 bitcoin to another one of my paper wallet addresses for it to be protected ??
i read about private keys being vunerable after they have been used .

can somebody shed any light on it please

Regards

First of all, if you have 0.5BTC and you send 0.25BTC, your remaining balance would be 0.25, not 2.5!!!  Huh
don't worry then. If you have your wallet encrypted with a strong password, it would take years to bruteforce it.
