My problem is the UTC time needs to appear in the middle of the picture I am
trying to create, ie:

12:45 local time [17:45 (GMT)] Monday 13th December

Just having one picture to render this rather than 3 would have alot of
benefits for our system. I was hoping there was a solution such as embedding a
variable holding the formatted GMT time in the picture.
