The USB/serial connection is handled by the 16u2 I believe?

Yes.

When removing the Diode we should be very careful, there are very small vias near the pad closer to the 16u2. I have already damaged one Meduino, this why I said to check the serial communications.

Fixed! Resoldered the usb connector and all is well again - which just goes to show that you should always check the simple things first 

Using the ICSP didn't affect the boot loader either thankfully so everything is 100% operational - and in 2-3 weeks I'll have a couple of spare Arduino boards

I think you don't overwrite the bootloader if you use the special "sketch upload" function via ISP like 41south said.
