  Black Bryony (Tamus communis), I think:

  A trowel in the hand is worth a thousand lost under a bush.

  I think that might be Black Bindweed, Fallopia Convolvulus.

  Could very well be, @Borderline - The leaves don't seem to be quite the same as Black bryony when zoomed-in.  Some good close-up photo's of the Fallopia leaves and flowers here:

  Thanks both - yes, it does look like black bindweed. I'm guessing, as much as I'm into natural, wildlife/wildflower gardening, I should hoick it out - before the geranium gets strangled!
