    For free, non-judgemental debt advice, try: Stepchange or National Debtline. Beware fee charging companies with similar names.

    Thanks for the quick replies guys.  Some good common sense points.   
    I have dropped an IFA an email, and will just see what she says about any advice. 
    Id like a few pointers on wether to go down the Drawdown or Annuity route as well, which I could get if offered an hour slot or something.  Will keep you updated !  

    And as if by magic ....its Friday afternoon :-)
