Nah dont think it was skimmed. Temperature is fine, takes a while to heat up and never gets high. Checked earlier after about 30mins of driving and most was gone but takes ages to go......could it just be the weather?

white smoke usually is fuel or head gasget (when cars cold take you coolant bottle top off fill it brimming full with water n start the car get sum1 to watch the level if it takes a gulp of water or you get big bubbles comin through im afraid its the head gasget mate )
