 Thanks, Paul.
I had a go at trying to identify it using the key in Pitkin's thesis.
https://spiral.imperial.ac.uk/bitstream/10044/1/38136/2/Pitkin-BR-1986-PhD-Thesis.pdf

I get to Leptocera but I struggle to get to species as I think I am misinterpreting the tibial spines.

 It helps if you can manage to make a phot of the ventral side of the mid tibia

I can no longer send private messages (and maybe not receive?), even though my inbox and outbox are not yet full. I write, click "send" and they disappear and never show up in the outbox.
