Update, just drove home and the light has come on again.  looks like I may have to take it to the garage to have a look as I am not mechanically minded.

Like I said in my email I think you have some form of boost leak which is triggering the CEL.  It could be coming from a number of places (broken PCV being my first guess) and will need some investigation to get to the bottom of it.
