Spider on a Rose

[ST-EOS]

I spotted this little spider whilst wandering around the garden this morning, at first I thought is was a little bug (I know I should have gone to that opticians).
I have absolutely no idea what sort of a spider it is, so any help with an identification would be great.

Exif: 5D3, 100MML IS ISO320, f6.3, 1/125sec, plus some Kenko tubes, for this one I may have had all three tubes on i.e.68mm.

I'm pretty sure this is Neriene clathrata, although there are other quite similar species. It actually belongs to the money spider family (Linyphiidae) but obviously is much bigger and more colourful than most members of that family. It's a common and widespread species.
