Is it correct to say:1. bond the bathroom into the lighting circuit if no shower present. or
2. Bond into the shower earth point otherwise? ie. is there a focal point to the supp. bonding?

Have a look at this, there is some good info and pictures: http://www.niceic.org.uk/nonapproved/downloads.html Newsletter 139 Supplement on BS 7671:2001, Section 601: Locations containing a bath or shower - Requirements

if the radiators are fed by plastic pipe there is no need for any bonding related to them

if they are fed by metal pipe then its better to bond the pipes feeding them
