Hi everyone, I have been able to resurrect my iPhoto library, 5 days of research and fiddling and finally a call to Apple Support, it actually took 18 hours of computer processing time, (might let it have today off.) a reinstall and upgrade of iPhoto 9 -latest version, before opening, then dragging all photos back onto iPhoto and, finally a rebuild of the library. Apparently there have have been 30 000 reported incidents of this issue.
Now creating another backup. There is hope if you have this problem after upgrading to iLife 11.

This warning via 9 to 5 Mac http://discussions.apple.com/thread.jspa?threadID=2621805&start=0&tstart=0 Disc Utility had to verify and 'fix' the external storage HD then I eventually found my 50Gb of Library in folder named IMPORTS - so I have reimported it all as iPhoto only shows grey boxes where the photos should be. After reimporting and sorting by date it is still a real mess.
