Well (further testing needed) I may have cracked it.

I found this
https://code.mythtv.org/trac/ticket/12713
Which suggested editing /etc/mysql/conf.d/mythtv.cnf
to

[mysqld]
#bind-address=0.0.0.0
max_connections=100
sql_mode=NO_ENGINE_SUBSTITUTION

This seems to have mythweb working OK. (I hope I am not speaking too soon)
The EPG in Mythweb seems fine although not on my Kodi frontend yet.

I also had this problem *Mythbuntu 16.04 Fresh Install - always starts 
MythTV Setup on boot *
and found this http://www.gossamer-threads.com/lists/mythtv/users/601385
and this https://ubuntuforums.org/showthread.php?t=2320224

The fix for me was...
Short version of solution that worked for me:
copy /lib/systemd/system/mythtv-backend.service to /etc/systemd/system/
edit /etc/systemd/system/mythtv-backend.service and insert the line 
ExecStartPre=/usr/bin/nm-online --quiet --timeout=5 above the existing 
ExecStartPre=... line.
reboot
