Then there's not a lot more I can add. If you are using sufficient priming sugar (say from the calculator) to the beer, it is thoroughly mixed in the bottling bucket or added direct to the bottles in exactly the right amount, and you are allowing 2 weeks to carb up in a warm place, you are doing everything that most people do, and should result in properly carbed beer, however it is served.
Thanks for all your advice on this
Very much appreciated

I can only think it was the sugar was syrupy after I boiled it and hasn’t mixed well in the bucket
 
Only a suggestion, but could it be possible because the beer was left quite a long time and had cleared significantly that maybe there isn’t much yeast left in suspense and it’s taking longer to carbonate? My last two brews have had patchy carbonation after being batch primed with 130g and they had both been cold crashed and were pretty darn clear at bottling. The few brews I’d done before I had the ferm fridge and the ability to cold crash were spot on carbonation wise. I’m kinda putting this out there for myself as much as anything else!!
