Notwithstanding I have never mentioned how this occurred, but earlier this year Mrs. No Name ‘acquired’ her own bowling ball and a last minute decision to get the holes adjusted for a better fit resulted in a hastily arranged overnight Thursday night stay in Norwich. Went to the tenpin bowling centre and ended up playing tenpin for three hours (in my case picking up a ball for the first time in 13 years). I was “quite poor” (a technical term for rubbish I believe) and comprehensively beaten and I did pick up a severe case of what I am reliably informed is termed ‘Bowler’s Bum’ but it was still very enjoyable. Stayed overnight at the excellent Annesley Hotel, last visited in October 2015 when attending the Robert Cray concert.
Tempus Fugit indeed, but sometimes the hastily arranged provide the most pleasure! Also, ball suitably adjusted so mission accomplished.
