Sorry but I seem to be doing something basically wrong?
I've tried several ways to enter the decimal lat/long but wether I put the S and E before or after the lat/long it always generates a northern hemisphere location????????

Make sure you enter it in decimal format. The means things that look like "-33.2345423". Any of the links at the bottom of the main YourMap page will help you do that.
