Gedroff!!! Get your own webcam!! Accrington stole our Council in 1974. It's probably Accrington folk nicking our grids. Geroffff!!!!

GHAS and Studio25 had a whip round and spent a few bob on a good cam, following a test run with your bog standard blurred eye. Been very successful, very busy etc. Gareth and Debbies photos are v.good if you need a competent snapper for your function. See the website. Visit Great Harwood! But behave yourself - this is not Accrington.

Can get on it Len ...

Just don't seem to be able to use the scan thingy.

I struggled at first but managed it by altering the drop down menu named 'refresh rate' to read '3s'

Great fun.

Can't wait for Monday because you can see into the shop next door.

What is next door, an opticans?

I might see if they can test my eyes from the comfort of my own home.

Can anyone tell me what there is to appreciate about Great Harwood, other than the roads out?

Well, if your serious, it's not anywhere else in Hyndburn - or Accrington and the Districts, as the Supreme Leader would have it. And it's particularly appreciated by not being part of Blackburn!

On the left is Eddleston's bakery. To the right, a kebab shop.

Need to have a look at it later today (Sunday) - it's been "sporadic" this weekend. I think I've tweaked something that should have stayed untwunk.

You don't need to install anything if you use a Java capable browser such as FireFox. Also, if more than four or five people hit it at 640x480 video (MJPEG or MPEG-4) simultaneously, it suffers a bit of a slowdown.

All you need for a similar thing in Accy is a shop with unused bandwidth on their broadband connection, located somewhere of interest to the community, whether present or expat. Don't put it near a pub or club because it's "general interest" not "just another CCTV".

If it does generate enough interest, we're more than happy to pass on our findings from setting ours up.
