Well, Chris, I'm doing the same thing at the moment, but I'm afraid I'm no expert. I got the people who sold me the fence to deliver concrete as well. It came in ready-mixed bags - one for each post. It might be worth seeing if you can get some of that.
 
dig the hole a minimum of 2 feet deep. keep the hole as small a spossible. We use the hanson post mix. Good aggregate in it, goes of well, very strong and neat and tidy. Most posts only need one per hole.
 
Thermo,
If one bag of post mix doesnt fill the hole completely is it possible to top up with normal concrete?

You could just use normal concrete anyway if you're used to it. It'll work out cheaper and you can use an additive to make it go off quickly. Sealofrost is one I've used.
