Help indentify this bug

[GuildfordPaul]

In the kitchen last night and this thing walked past, about 3 cm long pretty nasty looking, i went to take the first picture and it curled its back up like a sting, so I thought I'd play it safe and drop a book on it first, second picture is squashed but it maintained its shape, any ideas?
