Andrew, I've been taking daily dumps of the Liverpool area since  
October '06. I've generated some animations in the past that may be of  
interest to you. Hopefully I'll be able to come along to the LUG,  
haven't been to the Liverpool LUG before (I have a feeling it hasn't  
been going for long?)

I'll see if I can find the animations, or better, the source images,  
sometime.
