    Thanks for your help and for the welcome :dbgrtmb:
    We were told it was either an Osmanthus burkwoodii or a Choysia...I know it's definitely not a Choysia but it does have an Osmanthus look about it.

      Hmmm... well I'm sure others will chip in but it's neither of those it's definitely a Pittisporum tobira :whistle:

      Definitely not an Osmanthus burkwoodii (I have two), the leaves of which are pointy.

      I'm going for Pittosporum Tobira too.
