Got some pics from daveyheats.
Hope you don't mind me posting here mate, thought it might help others in future, but this is how NOT to 'lace' them...
You can see here that the strap coming through the holes in the pedal and round the outside of the pedal/foot is going UNDER the other two strap pieces. This means there is only 1 side of velcro in contact and that your foot is pulling the strap up and away from its self.
How TO 'lace' them...
You can just see here (Sorry, no camera on me) that the strap coming through the holes to the outside of the pedal is SANDWICHED between the two other straps. This is very important and provides the 'stick' needed for them to lock closed. Then when the foot pulls up it is effectively increasing the grip and the strap cannot come loose.
Hope this makes sense and let me know how you get on.
