Okay. Sorry for the constant updates. Think of this as Andys TeX blog :)
I have now discovered that \wrapfig can't be used in this case. The other
tiny inline graphics are clashing with it and melting its brain.
With \usepackage[verbose]{wrapfig} and reading the .sty source notes I learned
much more. It seems "A rare problem is that floats and footnotes specified
within the wrapping text can also cause poor placement and bad formatting."
I will take the advice, also given elsewhere by Piet van Oostrum to go with
\parpic... wish me luck.
