Probably Eleocharis acuta which is very common. This can be checked very simply by a non-botanist by looking at the leaf sheaths at the base of the spikes. See the 3rd sample image at:

Thanks Michael. None of my photos show that but I will take some next time they come up - when we get some decent rain!

Yes, we would love some good rain. I had some last night but it was only half a mm !
