I have now, @carasmo - thank you.
One thing I found, while testing everything, is that if I change the permalink settings, it works, but then reverts to the home page widget over-ride when I set that back to post name. An odd one...
Here is what I did:
Create a Blog page, with the Blog Template. View this page, scroll down and get the link for the Next Page.
In Widgets, add a Text widget to the Home - Bottom widget. Into this paste the code to go to that second blog page.
And that pretty much covers it - add styling so that it matches the blog page links. I also had to match the number of blog posts showing to whatever the home page includes.
Hope that helps. I know it could be coded into files, etc, but the above is a quick solution.
To achieve this without coding, here's what I did:

View this page, scroll down and go to the Next Page link - you want that link.In the Widgets section, in the Home - Bottom widget, add a Text widget. Into this paste the code to go to that second blog page. For instance:
<p style="text-align: right; font-size: 14px;"><a href="http://www.domainame.com/blog/page/2">Next Page »</a>And that pretty much covers it - the styling above is so that it matches the blog page links. I also had to match the number of blog posts showing to whatever the home page includes.

I'm going to figure out a solution as there are a few themes for which this will be useful. I do love the widgetised home page but we need the option to then go to the other blogs...
I need to find a solution to this too, so if anyone has managed a neat way to show older posts, please share.
I'll get testing things too and add whatever I find here.
I've reverted to the original theme now, Landon - thanks for looking.
I want to change the theme to http://withwordpress.co.uk/ but if I do that, I get the white wall of doom.
Very odd.
Appreciate you taking a look though.
