With a little googling around, I found this:
http://c5mix.com/blog/tips/using-page-attributes-in-concrete5-theme...

Basically (if I got you correctly) the answer is:

$yourValue = $c->getAttribute('your_attribute_handle');

nope - doesn't work.

I have an image that is pulling in with this:

<?php
$pt = $cobj->getCollectionAttributeValue('icon');
if($pt){
$imgHelper->outputThumbnail($pt, 20,20, $title);
}
?>

Have you checked out what is returned here:

$pt = $cobj->getCollectionAttributeValue('icon');

E.g. by dumping it:

var_dump($pt);

If there is null returned, then that page does not have an attribute called 'icon' defined.

I think it should work as you described for image attributes. Also, obvious question, have you correct helper in the $imgHelper variable?

$page = Page::getCurrentPage();
$your_at = $page->getCollectionAttributeValue('your_attribute');
echo $your_at;

Ok, not sure what you mean, you basically have all the answers already there.

Pulling out the image (as you described yourself):

$pt = $cobj->getCollectionAttributeValue('icon');
if($pt){
   $imgHelper->outputThumbnail($pt, 20,20, $title);
}

Pulling out the TEXT attribute:

echo $cobj->getAttribute('your_text_attribute_name');

Thank you everyone - all fixed with:

<?php
echo $cobj->getAttribute('timings');
?>
