In the last week I must have found 40 of these little beasts on a
couple of pots of lilies that the wife bought last year. never had

I've looked at the RHS advice for them http://www.rhs.org.uk/advice/profiles0500/beetle.asp
just wondering what others do about them.

As soon as my lilies started shooting I sprayed with Ultimate Bug
Killer. It has worked in previous years, but have to keep repeating
it. I haven't seen any beetles yet but a friend nearby has caught
some. I guess they flew across the Bristol Channel to you!!
