Shot this yesterday. It is about 3-4 mm long (body) antennae are way longer.
Can't find anything that looks like it.

I just spent ages looking through the UK Moth site & I'm damned if I can find it there, I've looked at hundreds & hundreds of different Moths some are close but not it though. I'll be counting em in my sleep instead of sheep now  Cheers for now Mark Thank you very much Mark, appreciate it.
