Looks quite like a Burnet Moth caterpillar, most likely either:
5-Spot Burnet
Narrow-Bordered 5-Spot Burnet
6 Spot Burnet
I'm not sure which species though.

It looks a bit like a 6 pot Burnet Moth caterpillar Zygaena filipendulae, but 10mm may be too small. |

I can taken reasonable pictures of most things but until someone more knowledgable than me tells me what they are they remain just things

Hi Kev, I am positive now that it is the Narrow-Bordered Burnet moth (5 spot Burnet) Zygaena lonicerae. |
