Correction: I just noticed that the above wasn't sufficiently clear;
delete the the ashw-laptop.ful files:

19745124        /var/backup/2010-02-01_04.00.04.089058.ashw-laptop.ful
18457968        /var/backup/2010-01-01_04.00.02.470647.ashw-laptop.ful
14512312        /var/backup/2009-12-01_04.00.02.836814.ashw-laptop.ful
12292536        /var/backup/2009-12-01_04.00.02.512045.ashw-laptop.ful
4981412         /var/backup/2009-09-23_23.15.22.379967.ashw-laptop.ful

*Do Not* delete /var backup itself, *only* the ashw-laptop.ful files.
