Thanks JeffS65

I did look at an online reference tuner and I had the GT tuner ready but by then I was reasonably sure where the fault lay.

I had watched the GT lesson on changing acoustic and as I was changing them all it was going to be useful to put my hand through the soundhole to ensure ball end was correctly placed.

In my haste I even cut all the strings without having a refresh of how they went from the nut to the pegs.

Had to find a good pic on the manufacturers page. Thanks Tanglewood

So all in all a pretty good lesson on what not to do.
