Over heating when not moving
I have fitted a new fan switch and new temp sender. The oil temp is 78 when normal and between 88 to 99 when very hot, I have checked and have a good return flow of water from the rad to expansion tank. Could this be my stat sticking and if so where on the head is it????

Failing that then guess worth checking the t-stat

flashing light could be something else, ie level sensor broken or simply, too little coolant.
I assume you're taking the figures from the oil temp gauge, since this has numbers on it and the coolant temp gauge doesn't. your figures sound about right TBH.
