After a lapse of some years, the Grumpy Old Men have taken up skittles again, this time courtesy of the Royal British Legion in Hucknall.
After initial surprise at the length we were supposed to bowl the, very heavy, wooden bowls and some effort in getting to grips with the rules, we played two rounds, which were admirably scored by Alan (‘nul points’) Snape.
To further confuse us, we changed the teams after the first round, after a suitable pause for the buffet. Some Grumpies were more consistent in their scoring than others, and not always in a good way!
This was an enjoyable evening, with thanks to Pete Wall for organising the game. We always welcome new members, just get in touch via our website or have a chat at our monthly meeting.
