Common Fiddleneck - Amsinckia micrantha

While walking my dog this morning I came across what looked like a Bugloss with yellow flowers. I first identified this as Yellow Alkanet Anchusa ochroleuca but thanks to more detailed observation by Joan and Keith Fox it is in fact Common Fiddleneck Amsinckia micrantha. There was just one plant growing in the gravel on the SW corner of the Honeystone overflow car park (TF67114028).
