Solved.

I noted that in my various ... sudo update-grub attempts, there was continous mention of grub not being able to be found etc

So, i copied and pasted the grub conditions from a known good pc with the same OS and version to this pc with the problem,,,,,,and low and behold, all is good again !!!!!

Theb resultof running update-grub now looks like:

te@te-desktop:~$ sudo update-grub
