I have a feeling that this could be embarassingly easy.

Can someone please identify the plant picture-linked below?
It is all over my garden at this time of the year, starting its life
is the form of little, dark-green "leaf-rosettes"; it also seems to
have very shallow roots (but I fear this may be deceptive).
It especially seems to like getting amongst the raspberry canes (what
doesn't?).

The picture is not as clear as I had expected but:

As you say, the picture isn't at all clear, but could it possibly be common
hemp nettle? We get a lot of that and it is very easy to pull up.

Sow thistle, maybe?
