Bowls

So, it’s a Friday night and I am home alone as much as I love OFF, I’ve decided that I need to get out a bit.

So... I signed up for a Bowls clinic - can’t be all bad since it’s almost an Olympic sport?

Do any OFF members play? I’ve played Boulle and I’m not too bad.


Any tips would be welcomed so I don’t pitch up looking like a complete idiot

Minx,

Are you talking bowling green Bowls, Crown Green Bowls (up North, here) or bowling alley bowls?
