1 Don't know, looks like it may be a garden type plant rather than weed though
2 geranium, safe but they don't usally bother with it
3 thistle, not toxic but a bit too spikey
4 not sure but it may be celandine and if so, toxic
5 don't know
6,7,8, speedwell I think, safe to eat

I still think 2 is a true geranium http://s668.photobucket.com/albums/v...t=IMG_1746.jpg

creeping buttercup http://www.thewesternisles.co.uk/wil...-buttercup.htm

but you will find out for sure when the flowers appear

thanks for the help everyone, i'll post back more pics when the weeds develop (if they don't die) as they're dotted around the garden
