Thanks chaps. My chain was pretty gunky so I removed it & soaked with Muck Off's chain cleaner in an old water bottle with some warm water. Applied the same too the cassettes & deraileur, gave it a scrub with a little brush & wiped excess & dried with a jay cloth.

Then the real fun began...I couldn't defeat the childsafe cap on the finish line lube, so hacked the outer lid off with a knife. After that I realised the connexilink ends had come off the chain somewhere whilst I was cleaning! I found one half quickly, but once I had resigned to not finding the other as light was fading, I folded down my workstand only to find the little blighter under ine of the legs!

Either way, chain & cassettes much cleaner now! Thanks for everyone's help.
