Thanks to all for your help.
I just updated another PC to the CU and that just replaced the previous recovery partition at the end of the drive with a larger 900MB+ recovery partition.
I modified the partitions on my laptop as mentioned in post 1. MiniTool Partition Wizard gave an error trying to extend Drive C: whilst in Windows so I booted to KYHI's recovery disk and used Partition Wizard from there which worked. Does Partition Wizard often give errors when you try to reconfigure the C: drive?
I used the commands recommended by lx07 post 2 to reconfigure Win RE on my laptop. I got an error saying that drive T could not be accessed but reagentc /info reports the recovery environment is correctly configured and I checked it works. Go figure.
