I am now utterly confused as to whether the beer I started 2 weeks ago will be ruined, as I pitched at around 24 degrees!

I thought someone on here had said it is ok as long as the temperature during fermentation didn't go above this. My brews (only been doing this for a month mind!) have all gradually dropped in temp as they have fermented (courtesy of the glorious British summer!) and I was lead to believe this was good, as the yeasts can clean up later in the process.

Oh well, will have to taste it to see!
 
You'll just have to wait and see what it comes out like.
If it is no good or fantastic you should have an idea what to do next time.
 
24degC will be fine. Much of the talk on here is about small tweaks, tips and tricks to make the best possible beer with what you've got whether that be a simple kit, extract or AG. As you're relatively new to this I wouldn't worry too much about the finer detail. Your beer will be fine and what's more, you made it!
