Okay, sorry for the long post, but i really do need to know if the 35v capacitor is acceptable.
Everything else im pretty happy with, and i reckon it should work.
As for maplins, theyre only 5 mins walk from my house, it would be handy to get them from them.
I only use maplins for small things i need, beacause yeah, they are a bit of a rip off (to say the least). 
Im pretty sure the 35v cap will not do because its 25v in the schematic for a reason.
Im not really sure where i could read to find a solution. :-\
Thanks for the help anyway goblinz.
I use rapid all the time - they are great!!!

overrating v on a cap is ok, as long as you have space for it
(larger v rating usually means larger cap)
underrating is not ok…
