Thanks Mike and Dennis.

I got a chance to look at it today.  The calliper seems a bit stuck on that
side, certainly compared to the other front wheel which spins for much
longer.  I loosened the bleeder and it didn't get any easier.  A bit of
tapping on the pad made it a little looser.

I'll try and remove the brake pad on that wheel tomorrow and give it a
clean out.  It is all a bit rusty/crusty in there.  I guess I may need to
take the calliper off and replace/rebuild.
