Thank you tresillian, you promptly returned my call and gave me sound advice with a lovely manner on how to get my 18 month to settle at night.  It has worked a treat, for the first time ever both my husband and I are confident to get him down, there is no screaming and it takes 30 minutes instead of 120.  Also no more waking in the night demanding to get into bed with us.  Awesome.
