Thanks for everyones help on this forum I managed to change the auxiliary Belt in 30 mins !!
It was much easier than i thought it would be.

Unfortunately it did not solve the squealing noise as I pull away.
The tensioner spring was fine and it spun quite easily.
Could it be the Tensioner bearing making the noise when its under tension?

Or could the problem lie elsewhere?

Please help.:(

PS
Even though the new Belt did not solve the problem it needed changing as it had lots of bits missing from the grooves.
 
I agree with The Mad Hat Man, I would check the clutch release bearing - or spigot bearing. If you are feeling brave you could jack up ( and support) all 4 wheels and lie underneath whilst someone else 'drives' it and try and hear where the noise is coming from!!!!! Or disconnect the prop shaft and only jack up the front wheels.
