The Mrs used the car today and came back saying she had broken it!
The bad news was she had snapped a handbrake cable (she's as hard as Sarah Conner)
But the good news is the rear brakes aren't hanging on anymore, so it must have been the cable that was seizing and not the calliper.
I still have some handbrake on the o/s so looks like I'll just need to sort new cable(s) out.
Also today (20th) the drivers side door mirror gave up completely, flopping around like a dead rabbit. It had been bodged up badly and needed replacing anyway. I can get it to stay on but I have to avoid ANY potholes or it falls off.
Going to pick up a replacement tomorrow so that will be sorted
