For the last few days I have been getting a message saying "Server traffic has reached upper limit" - or something to that effect and I haven't been able to get of the forum, I just wondered if it was only me or if it effected other folk?

Yes, it was downstream of turning off the spamhaus plugin. We got hit with a crippling amount of bot traffic and burned through the quota in a couple hours.Thankfully it happened at the end of the year!
I assume since we're back up Jack has reenabled the plugin.
