Today I noticed a number of tiny critters running around the rim of my half barrel which contains a conifer Golden Crest.  They are all stark white, very flat, loads of legs and the longest was probably about 1 cm.  Any ideas?

LOL no.  I suspect they dislike the cold drizzly weather we've got here as mush as I do.   :(

Mind you, I have just picked and eaten my first Cape Gooseberry so that cheered me up.   ;D
