Mildly amusing note to add concerning the timekeeper from Edinburgh.
As noted in the report, I struggled to find someone. When Jock
Shaw agreed to do the job, there was just one remaining hurdle to deal
with. As he wasn't on the RRA list of timekeepers, the RRA
Secretary needed to give him a ring to check that he was suitably
experienced for the job. The conversation went something
like this:
"Could you describe your level of
experience as a timekeeper please?"
"Do you remember the Commonwealth Games was based in Edinburgh a few
years back?"
"Yes, sure"
"I was Chief Timekeeper for the Track Cycling"
(slight pause)
"I think that will be fine thanks!"

I also submitted a schedule for London to Brighton and back. I'd moved my start point 2 miles south, to the summit of the North Downs.
And another schedule for London to York.
