Alastair, Woodland Ringlet?? (Erebia medusa Schiff.)
It seems the closest match in my book, but not exactly, the eyespots look too large and location may not be right.
somebody'll know.....

Hello, hello!
I think Your butterfly is one of the Lasiommata species. See these pages in Finnish: http://koti.mbnet.fi/perhoset/Lh1/93-114/112/112.htm
Click "Edellinen laji" for previous and "Seuraava laji" for the next page. My guess is L. petropolitana, a beautiful and relatively common species here.
