(that was my 'timed out' year..!)
PB - that must have been a nightmare !! A 'robust' educational slap in the face and MTFU approach is called for, to encourage them lol. All the more reason to scrap the grouping rule, it is pretty daft IMHO. Better luck with your grouping this year.

I was fortunate with my group, although we had to wait for around 15 minutes to be grouped (not a lot really) which the timekeepers never gave us back as stated.
