cheers guys - rode up highgate hill on the w/e. thought that would tighten the cog. and then went all out with a lock ring wrench, in the other direction.
is it possible just to have a dodgey lockring/hub where the threads look fine but are just a bit cheap and nasty?
also, I am a big guy - 6'5" prob about 90kg. a guy in a bike shop said that my weight against the lock ring could be simply too much... if that is the case guess I'll have to get me an electric kebab knife/cutter and start shaving off a few extra kilos!
