ok i found a way to do it to edit the header php and remove the toggle menu

Basically, you have to go into your themes header.php and delete the old menu. You can go do it from WordPress file editor in the admin panel, look for header.php and there should be some lines to the top that resemble css styling for the old header menu. Just delete that and save it.

I have no idea which bit of the code to modify
this is the code I think is relevant

<header id="masthead"  <?php echo $add_class; ?> role="banner">
	<nav id="site-navigation" class="main-navigation navbar-fixed-top navbar-left" role="navigation">
		<!-- Brand and toggle get grouped for better mobile display -->
		<div class="container" id="navigation_menu">
			<div class="navbar-header">
				<?php if ( has_nav_menu( 'primary' ) ) { ?>
					<button type="button" class="menu-toggle" data-toggle="collapse" data-target=".navbar-ex1-collapse">
						<span class="sr-only">Toggle navigation</span>
						<span class="icon-bar"></span> 
						<span class="icon-bar"></span>
						<span class="icon-bar"></span>
					</button>
				<?php } ?>
				<?php

lines 35 to 48
any help appreciated
