Well Russell

We must congratulate Ronald Togneri on how quickly he has restored the painting and i'm sure we will not be able to tell the difference once he has completed it.

Cool to see that Ronnie's restored the little cherub too.

Thanks for the photos Russell, I was speaking to Ronald on the phone on Sunday night and he told me that the restoration work had been completed.

Its great to hear that is has been restored... and hopefully access to it won't be restricted in light of what happened!

The painting looks great again! So glad it has been restored. I didn't know that there had been a cherub. It is beautiful-
Thanks Malky and Russell, for all of the pictures...present and historical.

Good to see the cave painting restored and well done to R Togneri and the Turners.

Question - will the blue around the painting be coloured out or is it a preventative or the likes?

Question - what will the Community Council do with the money that has been donated?

When you find that out, can someone tell me what the millenium money was spent on.

Also , excellent job on the restoration, looks even better now

If you look the blue was around it before it was damaged.

Says in the Courier the Community Council are looking for other ideas to put the money to - over £1000 was raised.

What millennium money are you about?

The paint was apparently bought in Wally's but, although he has cctv, the person was not caught on camera.

Re the millennium money. Does this refer to the 100 000 that came to Campbeltown through the MARC 300 committee? Two huge events involving the whole community - the Royal Burgh Charter ceremony and parade followed by the Victorian Market day on 8 July.

Thanks Nancie, I had not heard what the money had been used for. I remember the canvassing for ideas, but not the final outcome.

The money that was raised could go towards funding a vitual walk to the island, taking in all the views and attractions.
This would be highly beneficial to people who can't make the journey to the island, especially the cave.
