White Spots on Basil Leaves.

Spots on a basil leafHas anyone seen this before? One of my basil plants has developed a cluster of white spots (see right hand leaf on enlarged image). I am not sure if this is a pest, a disease or just an anomoly. Any suggestions gratefully accepted as this little chap is in close vicinity to 9 other basil plants.

As an asides, a great tip from Jamie Oliver’s garderner last night: keep your basil plants near your tomatoes as the aroma repels aphids.
