Not wanting to digress here, but 'normal' on my gauge is in practice a bit below half-way. Is that unusual? Or was Massive's already runnning a bit warm? (I'm in southern Australia, BTW, so the average ambient air temperature should be a lot higher than London!)

I have found that even a very small air-pocket after a coolant drain or change (see John AZ's suggestion) can produce striking irregularities in my average engine temperature as displayed on the gauge. I'd be inclined to check that again.
