Success!   Fitted 55 fast idle jets and she will now pull smoothly from 1000 rpm in an appropriate gear.  Many thanks to all concerned!
Direct link to jets is http://cgi.ebay.co.uk/ws/eBayISAPI.dll?ViewItem&item=230353196012 and, yes, very helpful and quick service, nice people to deal with.

I have returned to this - I have just put her back on the road and still found a bit of a hole between 1000 and 2000 rpm so I have increased the intermediate jets to 60.     This has practically eliminated the hole - it is now possible to drive between 30 and 40 mph in top gear rather than having to go down to 4th, a noticable improvement.
