Looks a little like a Clearwing Moth, but I can't pin it down.

Thanks to Beryl for the ID.

Nice one thanks Beryl, of course, can't see the end of the tail as it is underneath.

Will move and re-title the thread.

Yes, thanks to Beryl indeed. This is a new one on me.

Pete.

To go out without it (which I only ever did once) is like going out without your pants on. I've never understood why I responded to the 'Cameras and Equipment' question in this way because in reality I own a Leica Telescope with eyepieces, Zeiss Binoculars, and a Manfrotto Tripod all of which cost a positive fortune.
