I couldn't get Alt 0128 to work at all but here are a few euro signs pasted in from Word doc. made using Einion's Ctrl+Alt+4, followed by the pound sign for you to play with:

Thank you Nicholas for the words on Paulownia - I saw a 10m tree in full flower on television here three years or so ago and have hankered after it ever since.  I can't remeber what part of the country it was in, but the old lady interviewed said she had planted it about thirty years earlier.  I 've noted your tip about rubbing out some of the buds in the spring and will have a careful look at mine when it comes into growth.  Alternatively, I might encourage my daughter in Cornwall (a zone warmer than here) to grow one in her garden.

Many thanks again.
