It's possibly the same one as the second pic, as it was 5 days earlier, but I really don't know how many of these I could expect to have around!
Do you think this is sufficient to post the pics in the Gallery as there are none there? Perhaps with a note of nearly 100% certainty?

If these were in your garden, there are likely to be lots - in my experience they are the commonest mosquito that breeds in garden situations in Britain.
I think it is worth posting the first as
Culex sp., though it's difficult to be absolutely certain of its identity - but it does show the typical resting pose of a culicine.
