Campbeltown to look like Tobermory?

Postby smiles » Thu Jul 26, 2012 7:10 pm

Is Campbeltown trying to look like Tobermory now with the painting of the houses next to the coal merchants now blue? 8)

Can they mayne use some of the paint to paint over that hideous Nikel and Dime sign?

Albert Place. I like the new colour, heard a few people saying they don't like it but I think it's okay. Wasn't too sure about hearing UPVC windows were going in but they are pretty smart and vast improvements on the old ones. Good to see owners spending and maintaining their properties.

Maybe just about see it on the webcam at http://www.visitkintyre.info/webcam/index.htm

You and I know that, Roger, but I suppose you have to take into account Noswej's upbringing.

Got to admit, it does look better with the white windows - but yes, I thought Balamory when I saw it at first!

We have noticed that in a few of the shops when we have been visiting, makes you feel uncomfortable. I usually just walk straight back out and go elsewhere.
