We have a few social trips lined up for the next few months the first is Ten Pin Bowling :) sometime in October, more details to come.

If you're interested in a game or two stick your name in here, should be good fun and would be great to get along plenty of people.

Anyway, keep an eye on this thread for updates :)

Cheers

Am I allowed to use the lane bumpers ??? :'( ;D

Steve F

Sure, last time I played Sean (my son) used the lane next to us as well as the bumpers, bit of a shame there was a competition game going on on it already ;) We both did the whistle and look in the air thing but it was pretty obvious where the ball came from.

Come on people, this is a great opportunity to meet and socialize with other members of the Club. Some of us like trips and some like day runs but this is something different. We can bring our partners and our kids and issue challenges etc. and really have some fun.
Once we decide a venue, would a Saturday or Sunday arvo be better for a social event so we can include families. My grandkids luurrve bowling.
Could be a great day if we all get behind it .. this is a great club, why not make it better.

Might have to go with Sunday the 12th of October, Bec will be a little too pregnant to go to far from home after that anyway.

Jaffas suggested AMF at North Strathfield as a fairly central location. So I think we might go with that.

Cheers
Steve

Your on Lyn, I think the challenge though will be picking up the ball. 12th is fine with us.
Who else is up for a challenge.

If you are bowling with one arm Steve, you just might beat me.

stevet

06-10-08, 12:13 AM

Using the "frame". Should be a fair way from the old top score though ::) ;D.
Time ??? ???

Wooders

07-10-08, 02:01 AM

We're going to postpone for a week or two. We've had some issues getting details out to all members and with school holidays still on etc a lot of people will be away still.

New date will be Sunday the 19th of October say 11:00am - 1:00 (Roughly) at North Strathfield.

If we can get confirmations by the 12th so I can make a booking.

Cheers
Steve

We are keen but also peed off that we put off some plans based on the 12th.
Please let us know when a time is firm and confirmed.

New date will be Sunday the 19th of October say 11:00am - 1:00 (Roughly) at North Strathfield.

This is confirmed as it can be until I make a booking, which I cant do until I have numbers. As soon as I get the numbers I'll book for the date and time above, no guarantees we'll be finished by 1:00 hence the "roughly"

Sorry you put off plans on the 12th. I didn't want to move it (my wife and kids cant make the 19th and the kids were looking forward to it) but sometimes it just happens :(

Cheers
Steve

Any more takers? I'd like to book this ASAP to ensure we get the number of lanes we need etc.

So far the only confirmations I have for the 19th are myself and Wooders + 2

Cheers
Steve

Sorry, you did not make it Wolfe .. we had a really nice time .. Steve Taylor stole the show .. even with a broken arm he beat all the able bodied by using the frame. I was seriously thinking of 'kneecapping' him to give us all a chance.
don't want to give too much away, Rebecca (who is also a cool hand with a bowling ball, top scored in the second game) will publish photos etc. in the October mag.
Even Wooders little fellow Martin enjoyed the day.

Yep, a great way to spend a few hours on a Sunday, I did like the way Rebecca asks how to hold the ball and then.... well the mag report will tell you all ;)
