It is an excellent sport for seniors and the three alleys in our neighbourhood have senior leagues every winter. Oh well.<br /><br />There is a lawn bowling club at the bottom of the road, maybe we should think about it. Friend improved his 5 pin by leaps and bounds after lawn bowling.<br /><br />Thanks for following.Johttps://www.blogger.com/profile/14087140585742801854noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-2762107274389650601.post-13919872602727031992012-07-12T12:26:26.068-04:002012-07-12T12:26:26.068-04:00Hi Jo

Gave it up a couple of years back as we travel too much to keep up with league bowling. Hubby (David) is a qualified tenpin instructor and teaches kids on Saturday mornings. Our alley's here in the UK are going the same way as yours ... they get more money from 'fun' bowling so prefer to have childrens birthday or office party groups rather than serious bowlers.<br /><br />We've just taken up lawn bowls and joined the local Whitstable club.<br /><br />Love your recipes and will be following and looking for inspiration :-)Sue Clinkerhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/15582183867336673426noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-2762107274389650601.post-13618144181236392532012-07-11T16:07:01.727-04:002012-07-11T16:07:01.727-04:00I assume you are talking 10 pin Alex.

The only time we do 10 pin is when we are on vacation in the States.Johttps://www.blogger.com/profile/14087140585742801854noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-2762107274389650601.post-84342182351671711352012-07-11T14:55:16.875-04:002012-07-11T14:55:16.875-04:00I haven't been bowling in years...I haven't been bowling in years...Alex J.

I don't know that my bum knee would forgive me if I tried. But I used to enjoy it.<br /><br />I love shrimp salads.
