  Privet hawk moth caterpillar I think, looking for somewhere to pupate. 

  
  Gardening in Central Norfolk on improved gritty moraine over chalk ... free-draining.

  I saw one similar to that, more greyish colouring, today. I think it was an elephant hawk moth caterpillar (no photos, I didn't have my phone handy). It was on one of my fuchsias.  Which is fine as long as it doesn't invite hundreds of its friends to dine

  Doncaster, South Yorkshire. Soil type: sandy, well-drained
