Please don't tell me it's hopeless
« on: Thursday 08 January 09 08:12 GMT (UK) »
Hello,
This is the only picture in existence of my great grandmother.
I know it is in horrible condition, but having seen the miracles
performed by RC restorers, I thought I'd post it. If it beyond
salvation, I'll understand.
I have never attached a picture before, so here goes. Hope it works. ;D ;D

Far from hopeless, but it will be a long job - watch this space!

Thanks  Mike

I can email a larger version, if anyone wants one.
Just send a PM , but it may several hours before I reply as I am off to bed now. It's 12:26 am here.
