This little one pops up from behind my radiator:   Seems to have quite short legs but moves fast!

Hi Hedera,
I think it's Pseudeuophrys lanigera.

Looks like Pseudeuophrys lanigera as I think it's now called. One of the jumping spiders ( Salticidae) spreading gradually northwards in distribution.

Thank you, both. I've put him outside now on the sunny doorstep!
I had one of the zebra ones last year. Is this one unusual around here?

They're a pretty common species that's being spreading northwards through the UK. They're probably still under-recorded and seem to be found on the roofs of houses mainly and on occasion inside, hence the under-recording.
