I'm with you Looking:
1 10-spot
2 Harlequin (certainly not 2-spot as they have black legs) |

Looks like I got it correct for once.
You have no idea how long I spent looking at Ladybird photos on the Internet trying to work them out. I do like to find ID's for myself if I can manage it. Its a good way to learn.
Thanks all.
Regards Dave Monk. |

I think it was slightly bigger than a seven spot, but not by much.
