Can you remember if there was a little bit of orange colouring on the top of its head?

I believe there wasn’t. Looks like it is orange at the end of the antennae where they attach to the head is all.

That seems to rule out my most likely possibility a Dobson Fly
Archichauliodes (Riekochauliodes) guttiferus
Photo looks like it has folded wings above the body is this right?

I can’t recall. The photos aren’t clear. I wish i could get a better photo at the time but the light was wrong. Definitely no orange at the thorax though as seen in that photo!
