HI Michael,

Great suggestions, but silly me, I do believe I've found the cause 
(remoting to the machine in question), a bunch of entries in 
~/.config/gnome-session/saved-session, which implies I did actually 
inadvertently save a session configuration at some stage.

Sorry for the noise,
Cheers,
Dave
