Andy’s Revenge

As a follow up to a previous post, on Wednesday my ex-work colleague picked up his new bowling ball and I went along to get mine re-bored. It's amazing how scientific it is getting your fingers measured for your bowling ball. Afterwards we agreed to get a few of us together and go bowling on Friday, so we did.
The price was £10 for the first two games and £2 for the next, so we paid for three games and off we went. We spent the first couple of games getting used to the balls trying to get the spin on it like the pro's do, but by the third game I'd decided to give it the full beans and bowl as hard as I could. That was fine until someone looked at their watch, said that it was still early, let's see if we can another game for £2 which we did, and then we did another.
Three hours of bowling later, I worked out that I'd bowled/thrown a 16 lbs bowling ball nearly 100 times. Surprisingly I am having to type left handed as my right arm is aching a tad.
It seems as if this is going to be a regular event so I'm going to have to somehow build up the muscles in my right arm, any suggestions how?? :)
