Ok, quite a few of us on here dont mind playing a round of Ten-pin Bowling. I would like peoples votes on what dates suit them the most..........
Im looking at using Westgate Ten-pin as the venue (End of the North-Western). They also have a minigolf course inside as well and a movie theater is next door. Thinking about mid-late July.
For the guys out of Jaffaland zone, unless you are keen on coming up to surprise us dont vote.........
Choices:
1. Do it on a ATNR night - Thursday night suits me the most.
2. Friday Night is the Night to have some fun!
3. Saturday is better for me.
4. My mummy wont let me out at night.

Good spot though... one of the few places that only costs me $15 or so to taxi home (in the extremely likely event I get pissed... given enough planning and a suitable balance in my husbandly brownie point savings scheme)
Any chance of changing it to a multi choice? Thu or friday are both possible... but Thu is the overall preference. The final result will give you the best overall suitable night.

Ok I'd be keen for this, but I have a handling problem of the balls.
and the following issues...
A - slipping over is the most embarassing thing on a lane which I have mastered..
B - balancing and swinging...you just cant get your fingers right in the balls its just dont feel right.
C - everyone laughs at me (only played it once and I looked like an outright doofus):shutup:
Yea count me in everyone needs a good laugh:dodge:

Nah the darker the colour of the bowling ball the heavier it is...I think...I don't know.
I need tips on how to look like I know what Im doing. The clown shoes dont suit my hair colour lol.

Rightio,
The poll has closed and there is no clear decision on what night we should have it on...... So Im gonna make it a Saturday night (so people dont have to rush on over after work) lets say we meet at Westgate 10-pin on the 21st July @ 7pm.
Does that suit everyone? (What are the race dates?)

9th July 2007, 16:55

Why not the friday. Its being held in the evening any way. Its the end of the week so most will be foot loose and fancy free.
What do you think?

Thursday or friday I reckon. saturday means most have to kinda organize their weekend around it.
Just my 0.02c...
I voted thursday... its not like many people ride anyways, and theirs always a decent turn out at the pub so why not?

10th July 2007, 11:09

friday acceptable

OK, since the majority of the ATNR guys voted for the Thursday - shall we try for next Thursday 19th or wait til the 2nd August? (they are both off weeks anyhow)
Just thought a Saturday would give some of these "other" guys a chance to stick it where their mouth is.......:dodge:

10th July 2007, 20:05
I wasnt saying dont have it on the 21st just stating what else is on either way thursday, friday, saturday I dont care. :rockon:
