Thank-you. I was just going to ask you to cancel my post as I found the answer. I have realised that Versions cannot hide a user from the ugly facts of svn ;)
Realising that there are hidden files all around. I found this: rm -rf `find . -type d -name .svn` I ran it in the project directory before copy any files into the bookmarked projects's trunk. Everything went smoothly from there on. Again thank-you.
