I'm assuming this is something like Anthomyia pluvialis and not too difficult...?

Because the spots above the wing are merged with the ones above them, I don't think it is A. pluvialis. A. procellaris is the most likely here, but you have to study the genitalia to be sure. Have you got Michael Ackland's Anthomyiidae keys? See my attempt at http://www.dipter...d_id=30393.

Ouch! that's a bit of a disappointment then.

Thanks for your comments Stephen, much appreciated.
