Thanks all,
after boosting my confidence of doing my own service, oil change and filters etc in the back garden... i have taken the time too look carefully at what was wrong, the chain is slightly "warped" at about 6links just causing a bit of Sag.
ive popped upto the local bike shop and got a tin of lube for £6.50 (the cheapest and the best recomended too) put that on and left it, the bike seems to be to its usual self now.
i know i have to get new chain etc but i can now safely hold out until the bike show **gets really excited** and see what i can pick up there :lol
and yes, it did make a little mess but most went on the cardboard i had put down and the rest straight into an old plastic milk bottle :eek
I must have good aim
