Emailed them today to check what's happening, confirmed my address as there are actually two people with my name on the entrants' list, and guess what? Neither of them are me. Nice lady asked me to confirm my PayPal receipt, and I've just gone through Outlook inbox with growing sense of doom. It appears I never, actually, so to speak, in fact, entered. Now that you've stopped laughing at me, does anyone have a number going spare??

Iron_Mum Oct 2012 9:53am, 6 Oct 2012 3,556 posts	Quote Pin Iron_Mum LOL Fleecy! Yep, I have my race number and everything - I make lots of cock-ups on a daily basis but I always try to make sure they're NEW cock-ups I don't know if they did it deliberately to punish me, but the race pack this year has a picture on the front with writing in a box, and the box is slapped squarely over what was actually quite a nice pic of me. All you can see is my feet Are you doing it??
