So, 3 days after the above post and things seem to be moving along (quite) nicely.
WB2 is more or less up and running without too many issues (mainly user error).
I have tried to install a test image gallery and it's sort of working but not overly happy that I ended up putting it into an IFrame (not a fan of them). We will will add some pictures of the view from the Vue and surrounding area soon.
There is an issue with the rainfall - it's currently saying it's not rained for 3,500 days but am sure when it finally does rain that will solve itself
