Bowling stones gather no moss

No not the drugged up super thin old tart.

Last night was the company bowling tournament at the bowling alley. Along with Mrs H, Brunex, Big Frank, Jorge and Nasty Nes I found myself in a team called the bowling stones.

First game was rather eeeeerr average. Only Nester and Jorge hitting some sort of form with a 147 and 138. I pitched in with 126 (Should have been 138 but the stupid computer docked me spare for some reason and I wasn't going throw a fit). Guess we were in the running at this point as we all bowled pretty well even Mrs H chipping in with 83.

Next game was a different kettle of fish. Often sportsmen talk about hitting a "groove" (no not George on a usual Friday night). Well somehow I found it in the 2nd Game. Now when I was younger while the DM was raging with anger and learning the skills of a good frontman. Chad was bopping to the tones of whatever game before the stone rose and Chairboy started modelling different styles for his tache, I spent most of it in a bowling. I lived in smallish town with little to do so when they opened a bowling ally right down the street, I would spend afternoons there and on the golf course.

So I found myself bowling my second Highest scratch score of 221 YES 221.

Turns out as well we actually won the competition. Wine to the winners , which is a tea totaller is errrrrmmmm I suppose the thought that counts.
