Well I'm more than delighted to report that I am an idiot!

I had the card in a plastic bag in a hidden pocket of trousers that I hadn't worn for the last 10 days of the trip. I was so sure I had moved that card in with the others, and I'd somehow marked an identical SD card as used so concluded that had to be it, but there you go.

There's a lesson in there somewhere - for now I'll go with 'get over your jetlag before you start transferring your photos'.

I really do appreciate people's thoughts and ideas on this.

I just ordered one of these: http://www.amazon.com/JJC-MCSD12-Water-Resistant-Holder-Storage/dp/B00JIXRXKA?ie=UTF8&psc=1&redirect=true&ref_=oh_aui_detailpage_o00_s00

Is pretty inexpensive, and for the reviews, looks like is fairly good. It can hold 12 cards, as you see, although I don't have that many cards. I just order a pack of 5 x Sandisk Ultras 8GB, so that, plus the two 16GB ultimates I already have, will give me 7 cards. But I will just keep 6 cards on the holder. If they are on the left (yellow) side, they are empty, if I move them to the right (black) side, they are full.
