    Then take a quaver from his packet of crisps and shove it in your mouth. Then whilst crunching the quaver, say "understand bitch?".

    Sorted.
    lol, that's the way to do it!

      It is poor etiquette to take a ball from the other side of the rack. If left to its own devices it is 50/50 which side of the rack the ball will go down when it returns, but with gentle coaxing you can ensure that your balls slide into the appropriate rack.

        Don't go to places where people lay their nuts out on the bars.

          Very true - but if there is 4 on each team each using different weighted balls then by the time you get to go again there have been approx 7 more all returns...

            You're a contractor. Stop whining. Buy your own ball.
            Down with racism. Long live miscegenation!

                  Can't help but share at a Kegelbahn (9 pins only) unless you use your own. However the good bowlers don't use balls with holes in them...

                  Brexit is having a wee in the middle of the room at a house party because nobody is talking to you, and then complaining about the smell.

                    Not quite TEN pin bowling but I guess close enough!

                    I guess if we had stayed in the EU we would soon have been 9 pin bowling - with balls with no holes in tch.
