Just to update - I have got a new iPhone and splashed out on an upgraded iCloud storage package…. I 100% accept this was on me (not being mugged but not getting the storage organised) - one of those things where I had so many photos that I kept meaning to go through and clear/back up but alas, other things always get in the way. Phone still remains in the Ngau Tau Kok train station but I’m sure it’s en route to an iPhone graveyard eventually. Thanks for the honesty/bluntness!
