Agree with cazzzzzy you really should give it a try.
You do, sadly, have to wear their shoes.... rather fetching numbers, half red half blue with white soles.... but everyone wears them so you wont look too daft! lol.
Went bowling yesterday with the kids - you'll love it but watch your wrists and you'll also have painful buttocks the next day, or maybe it is just the weird way I bowl!
Go for it, I love bowling, its always a good laugh. Just dont ask anyone what my boyfriend did when we went with friends earlier this year......... how many pins are there? Duh! lol
I agree with annie, if youre not used to it you will probably have an aching wrist and arm the next day but........ buttocks? lol not sure on that one!
