I've noticed a squeal in my brakes when backing-up/reversing. It doesn't seem to have affected the braking performance; however the Missus comments on it. I don't think it's a prob. Any thoughts?

It's most likely brake dust in the rear drums or dirt in the front calipers causing it. Nothing to be alarmed about, but it can be a little irritating. You can try washing everything with a garden hose and see if it gets any of the dirt out.
