Not found in the garden but in the house, in the loo which I had just flushed !!! I saw this shape and when I put my glasses on, there it was .... and miraculously it was still alive, so I fished it out.
It's one of the False Widow spiders, harmless though like many spiders, it can bite. It's less than a centimetre from head to abdomen.

Le laurier rose, Nerium oleander, est une plante arbustive appartenant à la famille des Apocinacées. Il est botaniquement proche entre autres des Amsonia, Hoya, Adenia. Le laurier-rose est originaire, semble-t-il, d’Afrique du Nord, mais il est cultivé et même naturalisé en de nombreuses régions tempérées chaudes. Il se décline sous des centaines de cultivars. C’est un arbuste typiquement méditerranéen.
