Remote loading of Sky Survey crashes - maybe obsolete? [BUG] #9

Issue

I am following this page and get the following error.

Since you're now including the survey in the package, are you going to keep the remote loading feature? If yes, this needs looking out. Otherwise the documentation will need updating

>>> from whampy.skySurvey import SkySurvey
>>> survey_remote = SkySurvey(mode = 'remote')

My Set up

I'm working in a clean python 3.7 anaconda env where I'd only pip installed whampy.

This issue is part of the current JOSS-review of whampy ( #1940 )

I agree that its probably just best to remove the remote feature all together. I will update docs and close the issue when that is done.
