So my LBS phoned me today saying the 32t Race Face wide narrow chainring I ordered on 18 August has finally arrived. So now i need a rear-mech, shifter, chain, cassette and possibly one of them there large sprockets the size of a dinnerplate. Is there anything else and/ or bargains out there?

Has anyone done this anything I should know etc..

Clutch mech is paramount

An 11-36 cassette should be enough. You can get mech, shifters, chain and cassette from Merlin for 100 notes

Medium or short will be fine. The ones cheap at Merlin are long cage.

I've not lost my chain yet with a Works thicky thinny & non clutch X9 rear mech. Mind you if I was buying new I'd get a clutch one just to be sure.
