Thank you very much for the vital clue which has led me to identify it as Sesuvium portulacastrum. Though it now belongs to the family Aizoaceae your suggestion of Portulacaceae was very close indeed. In fact, it was first published as Portulaca portulacastrum by Linnaeus in 1753 but six years later he transferred it to Sesuvium (ref. Wikipedia).
