Surrey Phil Apr 2018 6:15pm, 16 Apr 2018 2,391 posts	Quote Pin Surrey Phil Thanks for the advice, Jovi Runner. They know what gun time I finished and I have just found myself on a video crossing the start line for which I have taken a screen shot and e-mailed. After locating two people in front of me, I can prove from their results that I started around 24:02 after the gun. Hopefully, that proof should be enough to get it fixed sooner rather than later.

Surrey Phil Apr 2018 10:04am, 17 Apr 2018 2,394 posts	Quote Pin Surrey Phil Chip problem has been resolved after sending a screenshot of me starting the race with the start time and gun-chip differentials of those runners around me. Official results will be updated with this later today. Hopefully, that will be the end of it.
jennyh Apr 2018 10:34am, 17 Apr 2018 2,874 posts	Quote Pin jennyh +1 for both the Bud light advert (back a few pages), and what Fleecy said about the majority of drivers being dickwads. A lot of people round our way seem to view redlights as optional guidance.... Stupid weather which is still pretty cold and miserable today in Cardiff, but is set to be ridiculously warm for VLM on Sunday. Me, for constantly moaning about the weather. [Glad you got the chip problem resolved SP!]
