Webmaster Sitemap error

Question

I'm getting 1,509 errors reported for my sitemap in google webmaster tools.

The sitemap is generated by Wordpress plugin All in one SEO pack.

In order to rule out a problem with the plugin, I installed another plugin to generate the following sitemap:

When added to webmaster tools it also errors.

The error is in the below image.

enter image description here

It must be something I've done, but for the life of me i can't work out what. Can anybody see anything obvious??

Thanks

/gallery/daryl-rosie is a valid URL, but when clicking it via the link in webmaster tools it tries to open https://www.google.com/gallery/daryl-rosie/ ?? — lunchboxbill, Apr 16 '14 at 19:54
The sitemap should contain full URLs only, specifying the protocol and the main page. — Oleg, Apr 17 '14 at 06:23
agreed, that plugin seems to be messing the whole thing, use full URLs — splinterteal, Apr 17 '14 at 14:21

Still not sure why it happened (or indeed why with 3 different sitemap plugins).

However editing the XML sitemap manually to sue full urls worked for google webmasters to accept it error free.
