Thank you John, the elements options solved the issue and after fine tuning the visual side, the latest version from the link in my previous post is close to what i am looking for (I hope it looks ok).

I forgot to ask my first question in the last post (i put the background to the second question as question 1 by mistake), i have the social icons set up and i know they work because when i turned on 'exclude plugins' they appeared correctly in the reduced layout just below the header bar.

However when the 'exclude plugins' option is turned off (as it is now), the social icons disappear - see image.

How can that be corrected?

(Ref the image with the white border, i think it is a bit small on the website and assume it is not big enough for the minimum AMP parameters, if so it is not a question i need solved).
