Thanks. I will try to get to the bottom of it. I planned to do so this
weekend but I was side-tracked by becoming a father (a valid excuse I
think) on Saturday. I shall keep you informed when I can find an excuse
to go into the garage!!!

Well Nick
You have a little hunt on your hands.
In a way you are lucky because its dead, so you can test what is not
getting 
current.
You cannot find these faults when they are intermittent, and those are 
usually temperature related. Sometimes they are movement related.
I think it is possibly your Ignition switch, as every thing you mention
is 
connected to that. Try the lights. If they work it would support my
theory.
Try all circuits coming from ignition switch. Try switching the key back
and 
forth quite firmly in the lock.
If this changes anything, you need to change that switch.
