Yes, that's it. Thanks very much.

Just need to find room for one now.

Can anyone identify what sort of shrub this is?... I saw it in
Portsmouth this week. It was about 9 feet tall and 7 feet wide.
It's evergreen. The leaves are similar to holly leaves, but a bit
smaller, not quite as deeply notched, dark green and very leathery.
But the most noticeable thing was the whole shrub was covered in
greenish-yellow 'tassels', each around 4 inches long. I presume they
are flowers.

Any ideas what it is please?

Sounds like a Garrya Elliptica, I have two and they are both covered in
tassels and look brilliant.
