We recived 165 blank emails this morning all addressed to different fictitious names @ouraddres.co.uk, all with different fictitious senders.
Anyone know what this is?

It sounds like a poorly written virus or spambot. Possibly someone trying out a new kiddie script. Someone who has your one or more of your email addresses may be infected and is using your (and maybe others) addresses to try and infect others.
