Moth IDs Please (1 Viewer)

There's often a few moths on the outer walls at work in the morning but I haven't got a comprehensive ID book to sort them out!

Any help with identifying the moths below would be much appreciated. The first was taken several days ago and the others were this morning.

Many thanks,

Adey

The Drinker
Pebble Prominent
Lesser Broad-bordered Yellow Underwing
Dark/Grey Dagger (to separate the two you need to take an unhealthy interest in their genitalia)
Dark Arches

Worth getting the book.
 
Many thanks, Brian. Much appreciated!

What's the best book without going fully into large scale (and price) handbooks? Could be an early entry onto my Christmas wish-list!

The first two below were last September and the next two were this morning

Dusky Thorn

The real selling points of the second and last moths are hidden unfortunately.
