Hi
I think that is a conopid fly, probably Sicus ferrugineus

Thanks very much, I was completely wrong with my id, it was after looking at a load of Nomada flava images and the colours looked the same but other parts are completely different!

Did you collect this one? It looks interesting, you may send it to me if you have it... thanks! ;)

Have changed title of message as requested.

I don't have a specimen but it was photographed in my parents garden so there is a slight chance it might be found again.
