It doesn't matter which Diagram you use but your Diodes are backwards. 'Conventional Current' flows from the Anodes to the Filament so they should 'Point' in that direction.
Transformer Windings don't like being left floating so it's best to give them a bit of Load.

Thank you Alan.
Is this (pic) correct now?
I'm of a mind that if a load will do no harm then it's inclusion is worthwhile as a belt-and-braces measure. But we will see what others have to say on the matter.
The question that still confuses me is which of the two options 'A' or 'B' to adopt. You say either, but Brian mentioned in post #3 that I must examine the wiring to see which heater pin to use because it must be the pin to which the reservoir capacitor is connected. Brian can you help me out on this with a little more explanation please and how I go about identifying it?
Thanks
Nick
