On a second look, it's my mythfrontend logs that have gone crazy. 
Backend logs are about 800kb Frontend logs are about 3 GB!!!

Sorry for not seeing this sooner. Mad few days here and little/no time 
free for myth checking. Need to sort this out as soon as possible though 
because the disk just keeps filling up and breaking other things!

Thanks
