but I suspect this is an inelegant solution.....
lcd.println(" ");will display several spaces followed by the two spurious characters produced by the and ASCII codes. How does this help things?

The problem is at the end of a two line display. Pic above. I guess the " " just pushes the junk over the edge, possibly to return on January 1st. It helps things inasmuch that the visual result is exactly what is required, while deleting the "ln" simply swaps one problem for another. It only takes one short line but I will follow the link, sure that there a more kosher way of doing this.
