Hello Bowlers
Short Mat Bowling will start again on Monday 13th January, 7.30 pm to 9.30pm. All welcome. Please bring soft indoor shoes or bowling in socks is equally good. We have to pay the standard charge of £16 for Monday evenings. My proposed charges are as follows: 6 bowlers = £3 each. 5 bowlers = £3.50 each. 4 bowlers = £4 each. 3 bowlers = £5.50 each. 2 bowlers - very rare - £8 each. When the slight overpayments - charged to avoid loose change shrapnel being required - add up to £16, we will have a free week. As always, I shall continue to supply the tea, milk, sugar, and biscuits out of my own pocket and at no cost to you. Thank you, Peter Jensen. Happy New Year All
