I do genuinely appreciate all your advice and it has helped a lot! However being my 1st post about anything I didn't realise there was a thank you button until it was pointed out. I do appreciate the pro's for sharing their knowledge!

No probs Bilco.
If you still have issues with your system after 'rule of thumb' balancing of radiators, do come back for follow up suggestions.
What needs to be established here is, where is the heat going that should be flowing through the rads. It could be going to the cylinder (so turn off the HW zone) or the bypass might be opeing to effectively allow the water to pass through (in this case the two pipes at the top of the boiler will have near equal heat but the rads will have a much greater temperature difference at the two pipes into the radvalves)
