I created a map of the location of toad statues when they were in Hull 
[1]. I then went on to use this to create a map of where students come 
from on a course, showing a YouTube video to replace the toad photo, 
which worked well. (It is not available to share ATM).

The students and toads are not connected, but the code is similar!
