2 x plant IDs

in Plants
Any help identifying these would be appreciated.
The first, a delicate trailing plant which seems to be growing vigorously next to my pond and wrapping itself round the stems of my pond reeds? Can't remember planting or sewing this plant.
The second I think is willowherb, but am not sure. Looks nice so I only want to pull it up if it's going to be a menace.
Thanks in advance!!

The first one I'm afraid I don't know but the second is indeed willow herb and is an absolute nightmare! It seeds everywhere but it's easy to pull. I know this because I do it EVERY DAY!!!
agree re the willowherb and what PP says about it.
the other is Ceterocapnos claviculata, sometimes called climbing corydalis.
In the sticks near Peterborough
Marvellous, thanks both.
