Size matters

A doting father was watching his daughter in a County match. She was bowling beautifully, her concentration was full-on and she was putting bowl after bowl on the jack.

One of the spectators asked the father: “She’s amazing: what size bowls does she bowl with – I thought she used bigger ones?”

“They’re a size 2 now”, said Dad “though at the start of the season, before all her competition rounds, they were a size 7!”

(This is a true eavesdropping. If you’ve got one to share from rinkside or bar, let us know: there’s a £10 shop voucher for every one we publish.)
