Hi can anybody please help ID this plant/weed that has seeded itself in my garden. The flowers are lavender in colour and trumpet shaped, sorry no pictures of the flowers.
Photos of foliage and seed pod links:

Thanks in advance.
Datura stramonium?
The leaves do look like a datura.
Seed pod fits as well.

Thanks everybody, glad I asked, I shall now dispose of it carefully!
We used to get these Thorn apples in amongst spring onions ,we believe the seed came from USA
