Is there an on-line guide for the newbie that explains what all the stitches do and in what situation i use should certain stitches, for example when to use stitch one to hem something etc etc, sorry for such a newbie question I'm based in the UK by the way.

Much of that information, plus routine care and maintenance, will be in the manual which comes with the machine.

For basic sewing techniques, find a copy of Reader's Digest Complete Guide to Sewing.

Thanks for that Beverly, I have it on order and should be here by mid next week I might even have a nose at it myself.

There is no reason at all you cannot make use of this power tool. ;-)
