(Home) head gasket again

Hi there all
I changed a head gasket5000km ago with all the other bits and pieces rad cap, thermostat, rad etc and its been fine.
Went to Burnham-on-sea the weekend, but got to Cardiff Gate and up the temp went doing about 70mph
topped up with water and we got to our destination OK.
Used it around the area and came back as far as Magor doing about 50-60mph all OK.
So the last stretch we were doing around 70mph and by the time we got to Llantrisant she started to boil again, got home OK and done a pressure check, very slight drop in pressure, but when i started it up the pressure raised about 15psi and remained there, so would it be a gasket again or a cracked head.
If the head is suspect where can i get it checked etc.
or get a replacement head from.

Regards for taking the time to read this and with a bit of luck i'll see you all in Brean.

Regards
René

Sorry to hear about engine problems.You can get the head checked and skimmed at LYONS engineering over in Brynmawr.I've taken a few heads there in the past and they do a good job.Price for a skim approx £50 cash
