And maybe I should have spotted why it wasn't working, many eyes and all

Ok, As far as I can make out, elements by default have preserved spaces, but
we are over-riding this by use of normalize-space and so are putting in 
<xsl:text> <xsl:text> to create a line break where needed and seems to be
a common way of dealing with it.

We need to create another record to test it properly.
