Most likely Synemon plana as they are abundent in this area and we have only three records for Synenom collects for the whole CNM area region

Apologies for quality of photos. I was pretty exhausted after 3 hrs pushing through thick grass over my head at times. Day 4 covid didn’t help.
As much as I would like it wasn’t synemon collecta. These two did not appear any different to previous nine s. Plana seen on the day.
