I am able to 'remember' text with highlighting the text required, and
copying it to the clipboard, and then "C-c r" remembers it, and shows in
its popup buffer that I need to "C-c C-c" to copy/move it to my remember
storage file. Except, the last bit doesn't work for me, instead it
calls the "Tag" command which opens "Tag: " in the mini-buffer which
just sits and waits for some response.

When I 'remember' something, this shows in its buffer -

--8<---------------cut here---------------start------------->8---
#     C-c C-c  "~/.emacs.d/org/remember.org" -> "* Interesting"
# C-u C-c C-c  like C-c C-c, and immediately visit note at target location
# C-0 C-c C-c  "???" -> "* ???"
# C-1 C-c C-c  to select file and header location interactively.
# C-2 C-c C-c  as child (C-3: as sibling) of the currently clocked item
# To switch templates, use `M-x org-remember'.  To abort use `C-c C-k'.
--8<---------------cut here---------------end--------------->8---

How then can I get it working right please?

Sharon.
