    That’s a great big bear up there to someone who only knows the famous seven stars.  However, look across and you can see Muscida in about the correct place, so the pair below it must be Talitha, and to their left Tania A & B. 

    My memory suggests the Isles of Lewis in the Outer Hebrides on account that I must have toured there with my Uni best pal in my Morris Minor around 1965 and later in the 70s with Mrs P.  Also, my son tells me he’s going there next week while touring the North of Scotland.   The problem is how to prove it.  I’m still thinking about that and trying to work out how you can have Sun shadows and stars  visible at the same time.  DaveP
