That's that theory dead, then :-)

OK, here comes the next one. sda5 is reported as:

>  5      257MB   125GB  125GB   logical                lvm


But in the pvdisplay output, we get:

  PV Name               /dev/sda5
  VG Name               pooky_vg
  PV Size               148.81 GiB / not usable 2.00 MiB
  Allocatable           yes
  PE Size               4.00 MiB
  Total PE              38095
  Free PE               10452
  Allocated PE          27643
  PV UUID               6vjc8d-5N80-0HrF-JzFb-l8o7-NcBD-bOn76g


So it's trying to cram 148GB of PV onto a 125GB partition :-(

Have you resized these partitions after creating the PVs?

My advice would be to borrow another drive, add it into the VG, then
pvmove all your data off sda5. Recreate the PV, add it back into the VG,
then move it all back again. sda5 looks to be unstable in its current
state.
