So now I'm confused...
I've only just insulated under the floor boards (200mm mineral wool netted up) - so it how long the pipes have been there isn't relevant and there is quite a big space under there (on a slope - approx 4ft at highest part) - almost an upside down attic.
If I had 8mm pipes in a well insulated attic shouldn't I insulate them?
If I used 15mm insulation wouldn't I have to mess around with taping it up or something ...and a lot of the pipes are at the lowest point so I'll be crawling on my stomach...
I know the thinner bore stuff is expensive - but it will be my only expense (apart from time and staples) - so I feel it would be worth it..
(The insulation and netting was (very kindly????) left in my attic by fitters who used the wrong stuff (no ventilation) - so the whole lot had to come down - only did this job to try and get rid of some....)
