Ok, so it's not actually funny, it's potentially dangerous but every so often the car refuses to steer, instead juddering really badly trhrough the steering wheel.
When it's stationary or moving off my driveway it's not too bad, but just recently it's started happening on roundabouts or at junctions when turning.
It isn't a fatal problem, ie it does resolve itself almost immediately but it really is beginning to be ba a pain in the ar$e!
Anyone else had a similar problem or can advise on what the problem could be?

Belt or pump by the sounds of it?

More than likely a worn or loose belt, mine does it quite often when its raining. Gonna stick a new one on this weekend and refit the undertray to hopefully protect it from the road spray.

mine did the same in the wet. tighten your belt. 5 min job.

sounds like loose belt replace it if you still have issues look in to pump
