Was I caught by a police hand held speed camera?
I was driving yesturday on the A1(M) just south of peterborough, doing about 75-78mph, and didnt realise there was a policeman on the overhead with one of those hand held things doing peoples speed, I was in the left hand lane, and there were cars going faster than me I think, and I moved into the middle lane and then sor him and slowed down but too late I guess, is there an unofficual 80mph speed limit? And am I ok this time?
There is no "unofficial" limit - speeding is an absolute offence.
However, ACPO guidelines say prosecution should not be below 10% +2mph, so normally on a dc they won't prosecute for anything under around 79mph. But that is not gospel and you can be done for 1mph over.
Also, the majority of speedos overread (they are allowed to by upto 10%) so if yours indicated 75mph then it is quite possible you were travelling below the limit (assuming it was a 70).
