I'm not in a desparate rush, so let me know if you want anything checked
or the full list of errors - they are all the same format, just
different locations.

I've just
been looking to do a do-release-upgrade from Ubuntu 16.04 to
18.04 and come across a raft of error messages along the lines of:
Err http://apt-cacher.lon.bitfolk.com/ubuntu/gb.archive.ubuntu.com/ubuntu bionic/main
Sources
403 Forbidden file type or location:
/ubuntu/gb.archive.ubuntu.com/ubuntu/dists/bionic/main/source/by-hash/SHA256/0e05b8e93cbdfe5d41306e9d34c893fa23f3087a58c637b882cb0f133375a133
[IP: 2001:ba8:1f1:f079::2 80]
This seems to be a new problem, not the same as above.
I'll try to have a look why the apt-cacher-ng is not accepting that URL.
It does work when pointed directly at the mirror:
$ curl -v

In the mean time if it is causing you a problem with your
do-release-upgrade my best suggestion is to remove the first
"apt-cacher.lon.bitfolk.com/ubuntu/" out of every URL in your
/etc/apt/sources.list, "sudo apt update" and try again.
