Panic over!!

I have partly found the solution.

I added a  new "Menu Bar" to the panel and the missing Applications, 
Places and Computer  items were back. The Web browser and Help icons are 
still missing, so I will have to add those manually.

Strange the way they just disappeared. Ah well, that's computers for 
you!  :)
