Surrey Phil Nov 2016 1:17pm, 3 Nov 2016 1688 posts	0 Surrey Phil I'm in my work ballot as I work for a London borough. Four places for about 26 boroughs! Shame I don't work for a borough that the marathon passes through as they get their own places.
The_Saint Nov 2016 4:31pm, 3 Nov 2016 5917 posts	0 The_Saint Annoyingly London have spotted their error in club places allocations, I was hoping that everyone would keep quiet and we would get away with it (4 places instead of 1)
