Yes, that did it thanks Dan. I clicked on Tool Options>Save Tool Options Now, there's also a 'Save tool options on exit' checkbox but I don't think I'd like that.
I've just realised what the green paintbrush thing is. It draws green over the image but when I minimize and restore the green is gone so it's some kind of bug. I don't think the last version of GIMP had this problem. The same thing happens with several other tools. I'll have to fix it if I want to use GIMP for any artwork.
