Thanks Joanie

Its a Zanthoxylum Pepper Tree. In the way of position its on a chest of drawers near a window, but not too close so its away from draughts (it said to keep it away from draughts on the tag). I think i just got a bit over ambitious with the watering after reading something on the net about the fact the soil needs to be constantly moist >< What i'd been doing was putting some water in the oasis underneath rather than in the actual compost itself, but it seems i've put too much in too often.
