OK this time a different question - sorry this is a bit Noddy, but I'm just
starting to learn:
What is the purpose of the delay values (#10) added to verilog statements -
is this purely for simulation or does it have some impact on the actual
implementation in an FPGA?

David,
I've never worked on FPGA designs - hence I can't comment about it.
I use the #delay stmt's for
(1) Simulation - eg. when I wanted to create a clock signal.
(2) To delay the assignment to the last of the time period, using #0.
I don't think nowadays, people use these stmts to verify timing, instead they
define the timing arc and annotate an SDF file.
Thanks & Regards,
Naren.
