I posted this for identification of the bee, over in the insect forum. They are having difficulty with the plant. See how you get on (I know what it is  ) http://http://www.wildaboutbritain.c...tml#post401335
err... that link dosen't seem to work. Guess you'll have to look in the insect forum for it.

So it is Leif, I don't often see Self-Heal once it's expanded and lost a little colour. I am used to seeing it sitting low on the floor with that incredible purple structure showing as a tight little 'cigar'. |

I think you have two flowers there....
The main one looks like basil thyme to me, Clinopodium acinos
The one which looks like it is part of the main one but you can see is different looks like a sand catchfly, Silene conica (it is also to the right of the main spike)
Nice finds!! and I'll be interested to see what others think
