This is a harvestman - they have 8 legs (usually) but this one has only seven - though it will survive just as well as any other despite losing a leg...

It is either Phalangium opilio, or the red harvestman Opilio canestrinii.

Well, maybe it was superstitious and it shed one, 7 being a lucky number ;).They’re all good, it always surprises me that they manage to keep any legs at all.
 
Nice set Paul,
I still can't get over how weird these look, no matter how many legs they have :D
