Leopard Slug? (1 Viewer)

Apologies if this is in the wrong section but I couldn't find anywhere more appropriate.
While watching Springwatch the other night I commented to my son that I hadn't seen many slugs at all this year. Then, lo and behold this morning I found this monster (it's about the length of a five pound note) on the outside of my kitchen window.
Am I right with my identification? As normal any replies will be much appreciated.

Yes, Limax maximus, Leopard Slug - even after last year's increase in species number in Britain, this one hasn't been split or had close confusion species added.
