@WonkyWomble has found this growing in her inner city garden ... she doesn't think it's anything she was expecting to appear and neither she nor I recognise it  (although it looks familiar and I'm wracking my brains.) ... I'm sure some of you know exactly what it is ...

    The flowers look like a Veronica of sorts...

    Could it be a Tradescantia? (bit of a wild guess)
