Just went out to the car to start checking the obvious things like fuses etc...
Decided to pull off the large multi-plug connector at the front of the main fuse box to check if there was any dirt in there or corroded contacts - all clean. Plugged it back on and re-checked wipers and headlights - all working perfectly now !
Guess it was just a bad connection Huh

Hi, yep drivers side, if you remove the multiplug there are two small plastic locaters on the very end of it that lock under the lugs on the fusebox.
 
You need to push it in at quite a steep angle then once its located push it into place
