You have inadvertently opened Dashboard, possibly by swiping the trackpad from right to left: https://support.apple.com/en-ca/HT201738

THANKYOU
dashboard wasn't open but i found in mission control that show dashboard was associated with mouse button 3, turned that off.. appears fixed. does the mac mouse have a central 3rd button between the left/right and i might have been clicking to close to centre!!
