We have recently decided to have a go at tenpin bowling in an effort to get at least a little exercise into our somewhat lethargic lifestyle.
After all, it’s only been about 20 years since we last played, so we should be able to pick up just where we left off. 🙂
Surprisingly, it’s not gone too badly , although Denise has had the upper hand most of the time (which is fine, because it’s just for fun!) – until yesterday, when I somehow managed to bowl a 192. And I only scored an eight in the tenth frame when a strike or a spare would probably have delivered a score over 200. Sadly, I suspect that this is the closest I will ever come to breaking the 200 mark, so I shall just have to savour the moment. This of course will mean absolutely nothing to those who have never played the game but, suffice to say, in a deeply shallow and largely meaningless way, I was quietly pleased with myself…..
