Thanks for the suggestion Alexandra. However, /var/log is only 10.8Mb
so I don't think the problem lies there.
/var contains the following folders:
backup cache games local log mail run tmp
backups crash lib lock lost+found opt spool
My suspicions are raised by the backups folder. This seems to be using
up most of the 4.2Gb. I briefly had sbackup installed but I've since
removed it. If this folder relates to sbackup I can probably remove it
with no grief.
