I have  a flute  melody which is 32 bars in length. Is it too late to integrate 
a second flute part beneath this?  Thank-you!
First two bars are below:


It's never too late for anything, once you learn the habit to put your 
parts in variables, and organise these in a score afterwards.


e.g.

fluteOne = \relative {  music for flute One  }

fluteTwo = \relative {  music for flute Two  }

\score {
<<
\new Staff \fluteOne
\new Staff \fluteTwo
>>
\layout {}
\midi {}
}

There are also commands for things like staffname, to make the midi 
playback sound like 2 flutes instead of the default pianosound, to tweak 
the layout, and much more. Check the LilyPond manuals.

I don't think is valid version number syntax (is it?)
use

\version "2.18.2"
