What is this caterpillar?

When weeding and pruning around a honeysuckle, I found this beautiful caterpillar, which I had mistaken for a dry and crumpled leaf! I wondered if it was a Dot Moth, a friend has wondered whether it was a Peach Blossom Moth. Any ideas?

    I think I'd go with Dot moth as well, they can be green as well.

    Thanks Dave. I can't double check or take a better photo as he has disappeared! Either I or the local wildlife upset him!
