No problem, perhaps I'm presuming to much prior knowledge,
sometimes. ;)

I'd get the problem fix asap and keep a close eye onto the
temperature gauge. The engine can easily suffer from permanent
damage if getting to hot, which is pretty likely to be far more
expensive to fix then a simple leak.
In addition, depending on your country you are facing punishment,
because the coolant fluid is hazardous if it leaks into the
environment.
Good luck
