Your right with the slug.
The snail will be Monacha cantiana. They seem to be spreading well, i had one of these in my garden for the first time last week.

Thanks Chris, I was wondering if it was Monacha cantiana but it varies to a previous specimen I have. But then again most snails do! I have many different forms of the Cepaea snails!! |

In my opinion the first is a Great Green Bush-cricket nymph, it looks fairly bulky and not quite speckly enough to be a Speckled!

To be honest Guy I have never seen a cricket nymph this large (was approx 12mm. Usually I seem them at around 5-6mm, so I took a bit of a guess on it. Must admit the smaller nymphs are a lot more speckled | | |
