Book Description
You pondered over the red tape of rules and regulations, were instructed in the art of bowling analysed the styles of shot and percentages, baffled by competitions and legislation, stumped by commentary and spoken advice.
Now for the first time meet the characters face to face as they gather again for the new bowling season.
Experience the thrill of club competition, the cut and thrust of the tearoom at lunch time and the sheer brilliance of skilled uproarious debate at Club gatherings.
From the very first day, the season builds through triumph and disaster, lurching from club to county competition, from ‘roll ups’ to royal visits, and from unbelievable catalogues of co-incidences that snatch defeat from the jaws of victory.
There’s no denying the fact that in the world of bowling here lies a club with some extra-ordinary men and woman, and perhaps even one or two bowlers…
If the onset of another new season isn't bad enough there's always Rollo the rather 'disturbed' vicarage cat whose short temper, sharp claws and unwitting dislike for anything 'bowling' serves only to systematically reduce the best laid plans to total chaos.
BROKEN BOWLS, MISSING COACHES, WRONG DATES, SPLIT TROUSERS, MEN IN SKIRTS, INEBRIATED SALESMEN, MANIACAL LAWNMOWERS, WRONG STICKERS, ADVENTURE WEEKENDS, CRAZED VICARS, ARACHNOPHOBIC TEA LADIES, AND STALE HAM SANDWICHES
It’s another bowling season at Lower South-Borough and the club continues to live up to its motto….
