 OK, so why would two transactions for £5 each have gone out of my bank account today when I haven't left the house? 

Both transactions have the same reference, a string of numbers that means nothing to me. I've googled it and there are no results. 

I'm a bit worried it's a fraudster testing the waters, but mainly quite intrigued by the mystery. Might ask my bank's live chat for help tomorrow.

 @2fd7551e I honestly can't remember the last time I used my debit card. Certainly not in the past five days or so and probably not for weeks. Normally I either pay cash or with a credit card. 

Hmmmm. I'll get on it tomorrow, I think. Tonight it'll just be a nightmare trying to contact them.
