Don't think I have done anything wrong, although I am pretty new at this stuff.

What this is trying to tell you is that
http://
location, as it is on http.
I assume what you did is
bzr checkout http://
which means that you have a "checkout" of that location. In bzr when you
commit in a checkout the changes are first done on the "master" branch
(the one above) and then locally.
In this case the commit fails as it can't write to that location. If you
want to make your changes available on that branch you need to use a
writable transport.
If you have write permission on that branch (i.e. you are a member of
timevaulters) and you want your commit to be available there (it is not
an experimental commit for testing, you can change the url the master
branch is recorded as. To do this you use the 'bzr bind' command. Pass
it the url of the new branch to bind to. In this case you will want to
use an sftp url, i.e.:
bzr bind sftp://
if you are not a member of the group, or this is an experimental commit,
or you just want to stop worrying about this and have your own area to
play around in, you can turn your checkout in to a branch by using the
'bzr unbind' command, simply
bzr unbind
and then any commits will only be local until you push (when again you
will need to use a writeable url).
Thanks,
James
