It is at a slight angle (i think the photo 'P4' exaggerates this angle slightly) but I assumed this was to act as a suspension on the nozzle, just in case it lowered too much on the Z-Axis.
I thought I fixed this yesterday but looking that the photo it looks as though it's fallen out of place again!
I was considering slipping a hacksaw blade along the x-axis as suggested in the 'troubleshooting'.
I will double check this tonight, thank you

Yes I followed this, i took the nozzle mount apart yesterday to amend the nozzle height, so i double checked the extrusion rate again. I extruded 100mm, when i measured i found that 101.5 was extruded. I amended the config file accordingly but still had the issue shown in the images above. thank you

Just setting the filament extrusion distance is not enough. You should also do the single-wall test to set your extrusion multiplier - slice a simple cube with the settings set to a single perimeter and no infill at all, and stop the print when the sides are high enough to measure their thickness. Look at the G code file with a text editor and see what the wall thickness should be (as stated in the first comment lines of Slic3r's G code, it will probably be 0.5mm). You average the thickness of the 4 sides. My extrusion factor is set to .833, (a 0.5mm wall actually measured 0.6mm, so set to 0.5/0.6) and I think most people have found that the default setting over-extrudes. It needs a different setting for different widths, and I suspect there is a bug in Slic3r. I think setting the cooling fan option is a waste of time because the Ormerod does not have any fan control so I don't think it does anything.

I get a 0.5mm width from my 0.5mm nozzle, I'm not sure why you think it isn't possible
