HA! It's what brought me back to URG some time ago :-)

It's caper spurge, a very handsome plant I think and easy to pull up but I
wouldn't want a lot in my small garden. Someone warned not to eat the seeds,
they're not capers and can be dangerous. Also, the sap can affect some
people quite badly.

I feel very pleased to know about this - all thanks to others here :-)
