So Pauline and I were trying to think of something a bit different than our norm to do on a Saturday night and I suggested we go bowling! I know – not a totally cool thing to do on a Saturday night but hey – it was fun. Even if our game lasted like all of about 20 minutes! Ha ha!

We went to All Start Lanes in Bayswater which was a lot smaller than I thought it would be. We could see about six lanes with two separated off and four in our area. I think I heard that there was also a private room with its own lanes. So, anyway there were less lanes there than I thought plus the actual lanes themselves seemed rather short … not that it helped us with our scoring … LOL!

After “working up a sweat” with our bowling we moved to the attached restaurant for dinner on the Eat Drink and Bowl offer. The food was not bad with our chicken quesadillas being quite tasty but Pauline was not impressed with her pretty much rare cheese burger for her main! I quite liked my butter roast cat-fish with succotash though I suspect the butter roasting made the fish much oilier than was healthy. Tasted darn good though!

Dinner left us surprisingly full but you can always make room for dessert. We decided to head in to Leicester Square for some Haagen-Dazs which would give us some time to get less full. The long line of Haagen-Dazs also helped. We had an idiot and annoying maitre d’ or waiter though who must have asked everyone in the line at least five times how many people were in their group – ever heard of a paper and pen mate?
