    I don't think so.

    Wouldn't even need to be this strong pre to re-isolate the limper.

    I think you have to then c-bet this flop and, although it's normally the case you are behind when a passive/limper suddenly starts getting aggro, you will always have the flush outs (8 cards in the worst case scenario) and a lot of the time the A/K will also be live vs Qx hands, so calling off is totally fine as well.

    UL, move on to the next hand and be happy you have position on someone limp/calling 3bets oop :)

    I thought I played the hand alright at the time then looking back in hindsight a check isn't the worst move in the world in position?

    Action seems fine, but your sizing is far too big.
    Pre there's no need. To make it more than £2.40, perhaps even less would be better given initial raiser is playing less than 100 bbs. 
    Your flop bet, what are you betting so much for, 3-bet pot multi-way, given effective stacks there's no need to bet more than 50% pot here and keep opponents bluffs in his range otherwise betting too much eliminates his bluff equity...

    In contrast your second hand I think your sizing pre is good, but on the flip I don't like it. Effective stacks are small but this is such a draw heavy board I would be betting 60%+ pot here or I would opt to check back flop and re-evaluate turn given this flop does not hit our range hard. We aren't folding flop anyway, but these guys are fish and more likely to take a passive approach with draws and they are also more likely to call with showdown rather than fold, also it's good for range balance checking our nut draws here as when the flush comes in it will be less suceptible to be in our range as we never continued on this wet flop after having the initial aggression pre flop
