pow - her pics are needed tbh imho.
fro-dizzle ma nizzle - this has been replaced under warranty because it let water in, but apart from that, I've never had problems with mine, she's never had problems with hers.
They also said it won't be back till end of January because of Christmas 
Might get the battery replaced, then tell Lily not to use it in the bath. Amazon have 50% off Fossil watches

Expansion tank you do.
Yes, Phi, up to the join/line in the expansion tank. Shouldn't need it thought tbh.
Make sure you check the engine oil when the car is on level ground, and the engine is warm. i.e. go for a 10 minute-ish drive, come back, turn engine off, wait 10 to 15 mins, then check

Well you can, as long as it isn't so much that it dilutes the anti-freeze concentrate.

I was thinking I have no idea when my antifreeze had last been changed, then I remembered, when I crashed. I suppose one good thing came out of it
