Doh, thats sounds a lot easier than what I ended up doing :P

Did one layer with white text and did effect > path > offset path. Put in the number of px stroke I wanted. That gives you white text with a white stroke - so it looks like one big blob of white. Then I added another layer on top of that with the same text, this time in the correct colour. There's loads to learn in this program, used it about 5 years ago but I've forgotten everything :(

Go to window>stroke and the stroke panel should come up on the right hand side if its not there already, then there should be 3 little buttons one is for outside stroke the other inside stroke and the last one i cant remember i'm abit drunk, make sure you have the word selected and click inside stroke that should do it. Sorry for bad spelling I(should be an apostrophy here i cant find the button) m on my phone.
