Left it running overnight and currently it is shows it is 21 weeks behind and taking a very long time.

Hi..
I am very new to bitcoin and last night I purchased and sent out from localbitcoins.com  to
12w1JPRWqGxrUDmQGfmc1kfUDCUPaD448W (which was provided byBitcoin Core v0.13.2 on my PC).

After few hours I noticed from it had 18 confirmation from tradeblock.com
but did not arrive.

I wrote to localbitcoin.com and was told that the transaction was confirmed and it is the receiver wallet's problem.
