Hi there,whatever it is it is very badly etiolated.Which means it hasnt had enough light for some time and has grown long and thin trying to get nearer to light.Can't really tell what it is because of this but someone may be along soon that may be able to take a good guess.

:)

This looks like the Chamaelobivia hybrid "Rose Quartz". "Chamaelobivia 'Rose Quartz' is a hybrid (genetic combination) between Chamaecereus ("Peanut Cactus") and Lobvia . This "peanut" cactus has an upright growth habit, offsetting and blooming profusely."

I will leave it in my window sill and give it the plant light on Saturday. Thinking of doing a temporary fix
