Hi...just took my front wheel out this week too, for the first time.
This is how I did it:
1. Take off the brakes.
2. Losen the pinch bolts.
3. Undo the axel bolt with a 14mm hex, possibly using a long breaker-bar (Halfords). Then the axel should unscrew out, be aware of the wheel dropping too.
4. The end.
A hex...I think that's what they're called.
