Thanks for the reply

I'm fairly new to linux, and really green with Ubuntu.

I did as you suggested. When I ran Synaptic Package Manager.
I scrolled down through the list of aps, and then I did a search for 
kernels.
I don't have a clue which apts I can safely remove, and I don't want to 
end up re-installing my whole system.
