Thank you.

I am using version 9.3.0

At the bottom of the Send screen I have on the left:

- Send
- Clear all
- Recipient

On the right I have icons showing the no. of connections and whether I am up to date or not

I can see no reference to fees.

Does this come after I hit "Send"?
Bitcoin-qt 0.9.3?

They have a different layout from the newer Bitcoin Core and the fees are not shown in the sending tab. Go to Options>Wallet and you can set your fees there. Optimally, set it higher than 0.0004BTC/kb.

And look at achow's post.

Just writing some code
You are using a fairly old version of Bitcoin Core. I highly recommend that you install the latest Bitcoin Core version. You can get it from https://bitcoin.org/en/download

At the bottom, you should see a small row that has "transaction fee" click show and you should be able to slide the slider to use floating fees. The more it is to the right, the higher the fee will be and the faster it would confirm.

You can choose a custom fee per kilobyte if you desire.

Just a question, what version of Bitcoin Core are you using? Different versions have different layouts.

Please help a Newbie.. having just lost a week of my life in unconfirmed land I am anxious to pay a fat fee to empty my Bitcoin Core Wallet efficiently. 

I have put the destination (my Electrum wallett) into "Pay To" and the amount into "Amount".  I now only have the option, bottom left to "Send".  When do I get the opportunity to add the fee please?  And how do I make it a fat one?  (Last time I think I just hit Send which led to the unconfirmed problem).

thank you.
