Just a wild guess, but have you tried removing the byte compiled files
from the org-plus-contrib files you listed?  I’ve had problems with byte
compilation of org-plus-contrib.  I.e. does

mkdir /home/boudiccas/org-mode-plus-contrib-backup; \
mv /home/boudiccas/.emacs.d/elpa/org-plus-contrib-20180129/*.elc \
/home/boudiccas/org-mode-plus-contrib-backup

fix your problem?
