Add this line on custom theme style.css
.site-header {
background: rgba(0, 0, 0, 0) url("http://geoff-ideas.co.uk/wp-content/uploads/2016/01/cropped-debussy-1-1.jpg") no-repeat scroll center top / 1600px auto !important;
}
Replace this lines
.site-header{
background: rgba(0, 0, 0, 0) url("http://geoff-ideas.co.uk/wp-content/uploads/2016/01/cropped-debussy-1-1.jpg") no-repeat scroll center top / 1600px auto !important;

position: relative;
