No probs, Wuff, I'll send them and then you have them for whenever they may be useful. I know about the workload you have over there. ;)

... which makes it number 7 (of 12) - IF Capricorn - unfortunately the image is not really sharp, and there is a flare on the central cane >:(. I'll ask the seller for better pics.

Hi.

Here is another example: etched 'Caithness Zodiac Scotland' on the base. The central symbol is Cancer, I think.

Thank you for confirming the maker (again), Alan ... perhaps it would be the time now to correct the thread title ::).
