Excellent series Leorooster- can only say it's a capsid/mirid bug- family Miridae- there's a lot of very similar bugs in this group.

Hiya Leorooster,
That a good series of shots, can't help with the ID save to say it a "nasty bug" cause its got a nasty pointy skin probing thing that looks very capable of dishing out some pain!!
Cheers for now
