Looks like a Common Garden Spider to me.
I agree. We get loads building webs all over the bushes in our garden. I used to feed them ants when i was a kid and watch them mummify them in silk.

Hi Iceman. I had something very similar crawling around my pc yesterday at home. And yes, I think it is a garden spider.  It was obviously trying to escape the rain. It was small, but didn't stop me from freaking out!!  :o(

Araneus diadematus

Have loads of them around in September here!  Webs with these spiders on every bush, tree etc you can see, even over door ways, they are huge!

thanks all, I have to admit never seen one with the markings before!

I agree with gen2, just looked it up in my insects de France book, they must have them there too, lol
