Thanks for all suggestions and info.  In answer to the questions asked:
1.  It is 02W13.  Is this important?
2.  Neither the sim nor phone memory are anywhere near full (in fact they
are emptier than they have been in months!).
3.  The master reset is a good idea to try before handing my phone over to a
service centre.
