Putty is saying that my MN has used 12gb of my 15gb vps is that normal ??
Why is One MN Different size on VPS ?

I have done that and it says that one MN is using 12gb ,,, is that correct ?

ok I've checked a MN that is not so old and it has only used 5gb ,,,,, guess they use more gb as time goes on ,,,,
are there files I can delete ??

Ok I do not know lynux so I use putty and WINSPC to work my MN's
I have looked at the two servers with WinSPC and tried to find there the differences are and it seem's that both the user folders containing the Mn's show no difference in size ,,
below are both the "df -h" read out's from putty showing the difference in size also i have added some folders that appear to contain very different sizes when i look at properties with WIn spc
the other thing which is apparent is each MN is running on a different version of ubuntu ( could one version really be twice the size of the other )?,,,
could anyone put any light on this ?

Yep, check you home dir "du -hd1" for any huge folders or "ls -lah" for any huge files.
You might also want to remove cached packages "sudo apt-get purge".

I doubt it. Most likely some huge internal staff. Have you tried "sudo apt-get purge"?

Next run "sudo apt-get -f install", it will clean up whatever mess is in there and afterwards run "sudo apt-get purge" again, you may not need to but it wont do any harm. Seeing as you've added that user to the sudoers file (or you've logged in as root, if so you don't need the "sudo" part of those commands) it could be worth running "sudo du -h /var" before and after, it will give some idea of how much space the apt cache was using and you may have a lot of logs files built up in /var/log.

Ok I forgot to do before and after this is after I have gained 2% of 15gb 
I think a while ago I did this

The package manager (dpkg and apt) are taking up a lot of space, 1.4GB of cached files in there which is a lot! You can do "apt-get clean" to clear them all out and get that 1.4GB back. That much used space is normal because apt stores everything with the standard config, it's simple enough to get it to delete downloaded packages after they've been installed but it's not usually much of an issue, a full release update will use a lot of space though! I'd suggest not doing them tbh, they can be trouble sometimes (as you found out!) and unless there's no option it's generally better to do a fresh install. That still leaves you with 4GB more used on one of your servers or are they both about the same now?
EDIT: The bottom value shows the total used in /var , 2.0G. Use "du -sh" instead to just show the sumarised value, just the size of the folder on its own. "du --help" explains what the options mean, -s = summarised, -h = human readable, ie. 2.7G instead of 2830416 (K)
