I feel like this is one of those moments in life where the timeline forks into two possible futures and for once we picked the good option. Don’t see what the problem is with it - it’s a garden centre with a few other things that can keep the kids entertained. It is what it is. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

throbber Posted May 2, 2021 Share Posted May 2, 2021 Just now, Pato said: I'm just meaning the prospect of aimlessly going to a retail destination without that trip being built around specifically buying something we need seems to have fallen away as a thing we want to do now. I went there to buy a clematis and a few dahlia bulbs. I could easily spend £1000 In there without even trying. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Adam Posted May 2, 2021 Share Posted May 2, 2021 I really wished Id stuck in properly at the bowls. Would have been a good social outlet. It’s a fun sport really. Admittedly the average age of members must be 65+, but everyone I’ve met so far have been really welcoming and friendly. Looking forward to playing in the summer, think it will be class in the sunshine. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Looking forward to playing in the summer, think it will be class in the sunshine.It can be fun. I found it much better than indoors, as the weather and temperature can affect the green and it makes for more interesting battles, not just the same fucking carpet the whole time.You also need the ideal set for playing at your best. I played with size 4 Henselites (?) the whole time I played between 10 and 18. Once tried a game with my dad's size 3 Taylors and just shat the bed everywhere, couldn't get near the jack! 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
