CAT 6 snagless - that future proofs you up to gigabit.

Nope. You only need Cat5e for that.

Glad you're getting there.
All mine is cat5e and that runs fine at 1 gig,  even my network here at work which is cat5e and must be getting close to 100 meters but runs fine  at 1 gig.

And Cat6 is fine.

Cat 5e should be OK, but as noted higher up some suppliers give you Cat 5 instead. For the small amount extra I'd go go with Cat 6 for the comfort factor - it's also a bit more robust when you start dragging it round a house.

It was expensive tho! should be worth it

Expensive? On eBuyer I'm looking at Cat 6 snagless 30M in a variety of colours all for under £10: http://www.ebuyer.com/search?a00436=30&subcat=2427&cat=24
