Ford Focus wheel bearings

I bought a 2004 used Focus LX TD DI last November and have been very pleased with my purchase. About 3 weeks ago I became aware of a regular speed related binding noise from the rear, and my local garage said I needed a new wheel bearing.

This was done at a cost of around £120 and all was well, except this week I have noticed a similar noise coming from the front - so clearly there is now a front wheel bearing going.

Is this a common problem with the Focus or am I just unlucky?
