I forgot to ask, why did I receive the bounce email for Paypal's
mistake? (I had not expected to receive it now I have SPF setup on
jguk.org)  Is there a way to avoid getting it?  I presume their MTA
generated a fresh email or some such..?

You received the bounce, because after Paypal's unsuccessful attempt to send you the original message, their MTA created a bounce, which, by definition, always has an empty MAIL FROM, which is not subjected to the SPF requirements like the original message was.
