Got it, after spending two days on just this problem I have found the
answer with the help of David T_G and David Kirol and others, many
thanks.
And the answer was
Setting ScriptAlias /cgi-bin /home/kelvin/cgi-bin/
Means that I still need http://localhost/
But I don't now need /home/Kelvin
So the final path is http://localhost/cgi-bin/myscript.cgi
Simple eh!
thanks again
Kelvin
Ps just spotted that Scott suggested this within one of his answers
