Right - as i suspected.  Thing is, "local camerashop" is kinda corporate these days - read "automatic machine".  Jessops will just use their imaging machines... and that is all auto i imagine and Boots use the Kodak machines and the staff know nothing but how to work their machines (and as i have found out pretty much nothing about photography and colour reproduction / resolutions / aspect ratios etc.)

Maybe i will ask at jessops to see how they set up their equipment and if it will accept my colour profile and leave it as is... if there is anyone in there who talks my language ;)

Thanks for input, kinda confirmed at least i was doing nothing wrong :)
