Sorry for yet another of these identification threads, but I found this rapid little beastie in my Cricket tub.

He's a very pale tan colour with a very distinctive abdominal marking. He sits like a Widow.

It's around 15mm from toe to toe.

Bearing in mind I'm in the UK, any ideas on what it is?

I can't help you much with identification, but there are similar spiders here in Finland.
