Loving the pics, and the sheer variety of stuff just in people's gardens.

Two damselflies enjoying each other and a spider from near Orford. The damsels are about 30mm long, the spider's body about half that

Not a spider, it's an opilione (or is a singular opiliones too?)
Opiliones look like they have their head as part of their body, don't produce silk or venom. Males have a penis too, unlike spiders.
