That's what I mean - we weren't from the back at all, we'd already queued an hour or two as well.
As it was planned (ha!) the overflow from Mark's main queue went back towards the voucher desk, and many of us waited there for ages. And eventually it stopped moving completely. And we could see people were just joining the main queue which had gone off in another direction. Bypassing us completely.
So when our overflow was moved alongside, we may well have been put in from of some who'd been in the original line all along, but knowing where the (unintentional) queue jumpers joined that queue would have been impossible to tell. Like I said we all had stewards on our sides, it's just neither side won.
