Ok I sorted it without calling a W/M engineer

The small hose that goes to the pressure switch had a split in it where it had been rubbing against the drum !!!

New hose off my gas manometer so gonna need a new hose for that and hey presto the 3 sons and wife can have clean clothes again

Mines a black tube which goes to a pressure switch,, I removed the tube from the pressure switch and blew down it and its clear,, I also blew into the pressure switch and it clicked then started to drain.. Im assuming this bit is working correctly...
Great aint it ,, Im a CORGI eng who can repair boilers LOL

it's your pressure switch,normally on the right hand side,need to remove top cover & look for a clear pipe (6mm/1/4"diameter) this pipe runs from the drum to the switch,it's usually soap/powder residue that block's this,hope this help's
