Small, only half inch in size, very delicate looking... I've spent far too long on Google image looking for an example, but drawn a blank.
The closest I get is a jumping spider, but to my untrained eye, they are a bit more hefty in the body.
So, if anyone knows, or can point me in the right direction, it would be great.
Thanks

Apparently it's an assassin bug nymph.

Good spot. Only six legs so not a spider, and in the photo the abdomen is turned up making it look rounder.

Perfect, thank you, seems I'd mistaken the front feelers for legs and miscounted..
