Talk about bad timing.
As Guru made his way into Personnel Today's office this week, he spotted this poster by the side of the road.
This poster campaign - fronted by Nicky Hambleton-Jones, presenter of Channel 4's 10 Years Younger - was launched just last week to make up a fundraising shortfall of £7m.
However, following Monday's tragic fire, Guru suspects the Cutty Sark will need a bigger celebrity and a few more millions to complete its renovation.
Stephen Archer, director of Cutty Sark Enterprises, which runs the ship on behalf of owner the Cutty Sark Trust said:
We will be launching a rejuvenated campaign. What form that will take we aren't too sure but I daresay it will be a fresh poster campaign.
