Trying mate believe me. For now though I need to get this sorted. What the feck is going on though. It seems I have a key for just one of those locks.

Your pictures don't load m8, though I was expecting a picture of your key lol.
Picture a thimble that goes over your finger.
This is what the removal key is. It fits over the locking nut on the wheel , and the back of the key is exactly the same as the front of your normal wheel nuts, meaning the key goes inbetween the wrench and the locking nut.
If you have one , it will look like the pictures I posted above.
If you don't, then not much more we can do really, and my advice would be to use tyre weld to get you to the garage, where the garage can take off your nut.

You only have 1 locking nut on each wheel. The rest are taken off simply by using the wrench on its own.

Yeah I know that.
But if you look at those pics. There is identical wheel nuts on 3 of the wheels, and 1 that is different, and that is the one I have an adapter/key for.

With what? So are you saying I only have 1 wheel lock on the car?

Is the locking nut that you can't get off perfectly round, or does it look like a hexagon etc?
If it is like a hexagon, then you can get a socket set, and hammer a socket over it, then just unscrew it.

Yeah it's like that. I have a socket set. Going to do in the morning, or i'll be banished from the Sunlight for being a dirty robber from across the water.

The key is your locking wheel nut remover.
The ???? is your tow bar that screws into a hole in your bumper that is probably hidden by a cover.
I don't know what the black thing is but it might just be a finger tight tool before using the wrench.
If you only have 1 locking nut key, and the wheels have an odd locking nut, then you are fecked m8, unless you can do what I've already suggested.

It just seems weird that I have only 1 locking nut that I have a key for. Are garage's that stupid to give me wheel locks with no key?

Just swing your dick at it m8, and worry about the nut once it's off.
You can get by with 3 nuts if you take it easy, and besides most boxes that contain the locking nut key normally have the spare nuts that the locking nuts replaced. Getting another from a scrapyard or a set of 4 bog standard nuts from a shop is buttons.
