Should he have put new wiring into the house from the grey bt box outside?? The only thing he did was to put in a new socket near the one that is in my front room and loop some wires over from that socket to the new one?

Did the engineer not fit a vDSL filter plate similar to these pictures here. see the glowy bit & here to your NTE5a Master Socket?
Are you still having to use any dangly filter for your phone?
Is the cable coming from outside Round and Black about 5.3mm in diameter or white round about 3.5mm diameter?
Edit: Have you got a digital camera? you can attach .jpg photos to a post.

1: From ground to grey bt box. Can you see the grey wire at the bottom? Is that normal?
2: White cable coming from the grey box to inside my house
3: Don't know if that's a vdsl filter? Cant remember seeing him change anything but he may have?
4: This is the extension that was already there when I moved in..
5: The box on the left was already there. He just put the right box on and looped something from the left box to the right.

Here's a better picture http://community.plus.net/forum/index.php/topic,106397.0.html with the lower front part of the NTE5a unplugged. You've already got one fitted on that NTE5a then.
What distances/cable lengths are you talking about here? Distance from grey box to Master socket and Master socket to extension?

Here is a guide for the ISPs - http://www.openreach.co.uk/orpg/home/aboutus/equivalence/downloads/Key_messages_for_GEA_FTTC_enginee...
If you go to page 6 and look at the steps on the right, this is what the engineer should have done.

It looks like someone has attempted to repair that with some black insulation tape?
Are the visible wires solid metal strands or plastic coated wires?

BT install a similar white box (modem) for both FTTC and FTTP. I think they are trialling new equipment allowing ISPs to provide their customers with a VDSL modem/router for FTTC.
