Okay, it was nearly finished so took less time than expected.

TomH has fixed the dodgy record in the database and I've re-created the 
problematic daily and hourly changeset files.  The minute changeset had 
already been deleted so if anybody is waiting on one of those they'll 
have to catch up with daily files.

If anybody sees any further problems please let me now.

Cheers,
Brett
