Well done, although I would ditch the 904 (1.80kg) Cylinder, and go down to your local tip and pick up a 907 (2.75kg) Cylinder.
GoOutdoors will exchange your 907 for a full Cylinder and will only charge for the Gas, not the cheapest at around £25, but Gas for the 904 is even more expensive.
We carry two 907 Cylinders, so that we never run out of Gas, but to be fair as we use EHU for most of our cooking, our current 907 in use has lasted for over 10 weeks camping, and has still got some way to go yet.
We only camping in France, that's why we stick with the CampinGaz Cylinders, even though the Gas is the most expensive on the market.
For uk use, I would switch the regulator, and go for a BP GasLite 5kg Cylinder, being transparent you can always see how much Gas you have, and the Gas cost is around half that of CampinGaz.
In fact I did spot a BP GasLite Cylider down at my local tip the other week, could have kicked myself for not picking it up.
BP GasLite Cylinders can be exchanged at the Home Base stores, although the brand is now under MacGas.

Hi Gwen, it's not a problem, your 904 will be handy if you ever go camping in France, in the meantime keep a look out down at your local tip for a 5kg BP GasLight Cylinder.
You can get the regulator of the Internet, about £10 simple modern style clip on affair, so a lot less of a fath than the screw on CampinGaz regulators.
If you do decide to stick with the 904, make sure that it has got it's valve cover carry handle, otherwise refill may be refused, you can buy the carry handles seperate in most camping shops, around a fiver.
The CampinGaz Chef is a great little stove, been using ours since 2008, lucky car boot find brand new in the box c/w regulator and hose for £20!
