Problem Solved.
It turned out to be the engine idle module, right at the back of the engine on the top under the main cover plate
Unpluged it, removed the three nuts holding it on and cleaned the whole thing with carb cleaner and put it back.
Not had the stalling again since and engine runs much smoother now.
Hope this helps anyone else experiencing this problem.
Not sure if this needs to go onto the sticky common faults.
