Ten Pin Bowling
Tuesday 6th June
Our proposal of a trip to Newark on Trent was called off due to inclement weather, so at short notice we have taken the decision to try our hand at Ten Pin Bowling at Leeds again.
Only a small group of the lads today, just Colin John Derek and Dave, we still had a great laugh even though some of the comedians of our group were absent from this venue.
We arranged to meet at midday and take it from there, booking two games each they placed us on lane 19 , Colin soon got to grips with the scoring mechanism and after a short while we commenced the tournament! Dave was off to a great start and kept up this momentum for the first six frames with about 70 points on the board , whilst Colin John and Derek were battling it out between themselves until Derek improved his skills and pulled off a strike followed by a couple of spares, Colin and John were still struggling with their actions. Dave eventually won the game.
The second game brought a much better performance from Derek, Colin had a disastrous start to his game but John found some improvements with a different ball and some technique changes ,which brought about a magnificent strike at a rather low speed! Dave kept on plodding away.
As the game progressed it soon became evident who was not going to win! but with a smile on our faces and aching limbs we all enjoyed ourselves.
After the game we crossed over the road to have lunch at Weatherspoons and reflect upon the delights of Ten Pin Bowling.
Cheers Lads.
