Many thanks for your link to heatweb, Andy, and all the other gen.
My barf is in fact 1600 mm overall length and I figure 120L will fill it more than adequately, and there is absolutely no room for a bigger one. And my present elderly 96L one seems to work.
(I very rarely use the bath, I'd have to take the coal out first)
I think you are right about tank sizes, I might go for a 120L indirect or perhaps an 80L superduty type (thanks to IMM for another source of quick recovery tanks!), but I think 120L is safer.
I get adequate flow from the bath tap and the washbasin, so might settle for a booster for the kitchen sink; maybe just a shower pump.
Anyhow I can now find the necessary bits and do some sums, and felt much better informed on what's what.
Sorry about provoking the discussion with IMM, but I learnt something from that, so it wasn't all wasted - I bet that makes you feel better!
Regards
