I have been studying Virtual Machines and Compiler technologies and have 
only been looking at SmallTalk for three days so far so forgive my lack of 
knowledge of SmallTalk and Squeak. I should have read more first and studied 
the SmallTalk properly before hand and I may have not posed such a silly 
question !

Yep.

Sorry for any disturbance,
