A bit more with Google has got my screens back to now they used to be.  I 
edited

.local/share/kscreen/4b196a0cb83b764e71ff854480cbf755

and changed the 'X' pos for the second screen from 0 to 1280 and logged out 
and back in.  This change worked, and also survives logging out / in.

However, the "task bar" is on the right hand screen, where it used to be on 
the left, which I prefer.  The left screen has been set as the primary but 
that doesn't seem to make any difference.  

Anyone know what I need to do next?

Below is the full kscreen config file
