Well, before I sign off, if there is anyone out there who is bored and wants something to do on Monday night, why not grab a few friends and join this league?

There is money to be won on the first game on pick the score plus five meat raffles every Monday night, also great music to listen to while you are bowling.

Interested persons just come along at 5.45pm to Shoalhaven City Lanes, Narang Road, Bomaderry and you don’t need to be a good player to bowl in it as it is based on handicap and the cost is only $21 for three games.

Well, that’s all for now so until next week good luck and high scoring.

Les Collins.
