I know there's going to be something really obvious that I've missed here, but I'd like someone to point it out to me and make me feel really stoopid!

Have recently written a basic website for my father's business, my rusty html has taken a looooong time to debug, but all works now... with one exception.

Where I've used a £ in text it appears on the page as £ - what've I missed??!!

Forgot to say it's live at www.lyndhurst.eu.com
 
Add:

Code:
<meta http-equiv="Content-Type" content="text/html; charset=utf-8" />

In the head or..

Try encoding the pound sign like: £
 
The £ showed up properly for me, but I also have my browser set to default to UTF-8. I didn't see any character set declarations in your HTML. See &Ingonyama's post for more details on that.
