The only thing I can suggest then Dave is you get it to a garage near you for them to look at

I am wondering if there is some **** that has found its way in to your ABS unit - this is next to impossible to shift. It wll give this spongy feeling also.

You could try flushing the whole system - take it to someone who has the correct tools for a proper full flush.
