Re: Anyone know what this is ?

Reminds me of a WEED growing and rapidly spreading in my garden

Mine came with a bale of hay .... will post a pix when it stops raining.

Similar to Garlic Mustard but my blossom is different

Malcolm, definitely looks like a type of Sage, probably simple garden sage. Here are some photos for reference:

Thanks but it is nothing like a sage plant realist.
I am a gardener and grow several herbs and can honestly say it is not sage ... But thanks anyhow

Try giving a leaf to a friendly cat. If it is catmint they will either eat it or rub their bodies on it.

Looks good except for where the leaf meets the stem.

Re: Anyone know what this is ?

Changed my mind after a visit to the garden centre this afternoon. I think it's as others have said - Catmint.

Re: Anyone know what this is ?

Catmint can be identified by the pungent smell of the leaves and the small purple dots inside the flower.

My mystery plant is flowering, and I have realised what it is.
It is a 'White Dead Nettle'
