Those who are more IT-comfortable:
What should I use to back up my 92GB documents from the laptop? Kind thanks.

Buy an external hard drive with a USB connection. Preferably powered. It will be portable and relatively inexpensive. I use Novatech. (www.novatech.co.uk). Once bought, set up your laptop to back up to it.

I've recently advised a client to get a 320gb drive from Amazon, cost just over £30. That will give you some room for growth assuming you're not planning to treble the volume anytime soon.
You can either just drag and copy the data over or set-up a regular backup as already suggested. If you need any help contact me at keithmt@btinternet.com

320Gb for £30 is a bargain. I hadn't realised that External drives were so cheap now. Using your preferred Search engine, find the best deal from a well known company. Alternatively, if Habit Solutions are still in the village try them (and I have no connection to them)
