I count eight legs, so it's some kind of spider. Beyond that it's my dad's area of expertise, not mine, I'm afraid!
Did a quick Google and this is what came up:

Thanks guys :) It's good to know that I haven't accidentally brought in a poisonous super spider like I first thought.
Green Orb Web, harmless :)
Glad you posed the question as I had one appear on me whilst gardening in a shrubbery. Thought it was a spider because of shape & legs but nice to give it a name.
Funnily enough, I had never seen one of these before, but I did see one for the first time at the weekend in my garden.
Yeah its a spider carrying a melon :clapping: :naughty:
