It's an Arum looks a bit different from the common lords & ladies though - so I'll carry on thinking ;)

shows lords & ladies with leaves like yours so it is probably that..I've not seen one with such bright and pretty markings before  ::) The berries are toxic so be careful  :ohmy:

Arum Italicum would be my guess, looks like mine in the garden.

http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Arum_italicum

The 2 nd link shows the variety " pictum", I think that one has more white markings on the leaves.
