That's giving me actual output, great. I think I've buggered up  
generate_tiles with some of my debugging code tho, specifically around  
where the tile is outputted but I"ll have a look at that tomorrow.  
Much happier now I'm getting something I can look. One thing I forgot  
to mention is that the source data is OSGB (or British National Grid  
if you prefer) and I'm attempting to re-project on the fly, but  
hopefully that shouldn't matter.
