The applications are just a whole lot of Terminal windows (Gnome
Terminal 2.24.1) and Firefox distributed over five workspaces.

The files in ~/.cache/sessions are:-

    Thunar-117f000101000122400734000000079700002  xfwm4-117f000101000122410508700000177870000
    Thunar-117f000101000122401935100000114400002  xfwm4-117f000101000122410529900000182560000
    Thunar-117f000101000122632269200000073890002  xfwm4-117f000101000122414714200000064980000
    xfce4-session-chris-ubuntu:0                  xfwm4-117f000101000122631611900000065490000
    xfce4-session-chris-ubuntu:0.bak              xfwm4-117f000101000122631715800000065030000
    xfwm4-117f000101000122401935100000114400000   xfwm4-117f000101000122632235000000063160000
    xfwm4-117f000101000122410493800000064510001

So which one refers to the current session?  :-)
