This is going to be a ridiculous question. Since installing this great theme there has been an update. I am obviously wishing to run this update but cannot find any documentation regarding the correct way to update an additional theme.
Can somebody please point me in the right direction.

If your looking for an answer along the lines of typical module update, then stop.

When installing an updated module you run a database update because a module update often makes changes to the database.

However themes, do not write to the database, they are purely html/css elements.
At most go to your theme settings page, un-enable the theme.
Just delete the older theme folder on your server and then upload the new updated theme.
Then re-enable the theme.

Note:
1. You must delete the old theme entirely, don't just overwrite, some code may have be obsolete, overwriting won't clean those out.
2. If you made custom changes to the theme, any custom node-type.tpl.php- remember to save them. As well as custom css file if you did changes as well.

Hope that helps
