Well done, Charles. I am surprised you recognised my crude drawing of Westray and not my copy of the face of the Westray Wifie (or Wife). The people were added to give a wider reach for people who may not be familiar with this find. The man is Michael Venus, a New Zealand tennis player and the woman is Rosa Nouchette Carey, the author of a book called "The Wee Wifie". It has nothing to do with the Orkney Venus except in its title and is apparently full of drugs and insanity.
I love the speculation about the Westray Wifie. I wonder what life forms will exist in this planet in 5,000 yrs time and what they will make of a find of a cindy doll with no arms dug out from somewhere.
Here is a (blurry) photo of my WW (bought from the heritage centre on Westray a few years ago) . At just over 4 cm it is lthe size of the original.
Over to you.
