Nice little alien - Grote Groene Sabelsprinkhaan / Gr?nes Heupferd / 
Great Green Bush Cricket Saltamontes verde com?n / Grande Sauterelle 
Verte (Tettigonia Viridissima) - the females can be up to around 5 cm 
long (without the feelers) We (or better, Posy the cat) regularly finds 
them in our garden.

They are pretty tame too, they'll sit on your hand for ages.
Cheers
Douglas
