OK - thanks.
Any recommendation for a suitable candidate for a newbie with basic needs?
Also can I take it that the fact that I _am_ seeing a secondary level menu, albeit one that is incorrect when more than one child is added, is a function of the SimpleBootsstrap theme and I need to ask the authors of that theme?
We need better guidance for this because it comes up again and again and it isn't always easy to understand. I am going to write something in the wiki.
In the GS backend you see in Page Options the option to define a page a the child of another. That will give the page the url parent\child but it won't sort out your site navigation.
In your page template, GS's get_navigation() tag inserts a simple html list of links to pages marked for inclusion in the nav menu regardless of their child/parent status. You need a plugin to do anything more. Typically you might want to make nested <ul> elements for levels of navigation, but not always. Sometimes you might need different levels displayed in different places, maybe by full page title, maybe as <p> elements.
To display the nested lists (or separate lists or whatever) you then need the right css in your theme.
I18N is the most used plugin for multi-level navigation, but there are also a couple of simpler plugins in extend. The I18N instructions are here:
