**On Friday 2nd January, we're excited to be kicking off another year of social fun with our latest Friday Night Bowling Social.** Yep that's right... we'll be heading back to one of the best value activities in the whole of London, Duckpin Bowling at Brewdog in Waterloo for an evening of bowling and social drinks.

The rules of the game are very similar to standard bowling, with bowlers trying to knock down pins in the fewest rolls over 10 frames. However, with lighter balls, shorter lanes and smaller pins, with Duckpin Bowling you'll need even more precision and skill to get a strike. **Best of all, it is one of the cheapest Bowling experiences in the whole of London at just £8.35pp!** Places are limited though and will be offered on a first-come, first-served basis and so if you would like to join us for this, please RSVP as soon as possible! **\- \- \- \- \- \- \- \- \- \- \- \- \- \- \- \- \- \- \- \- \- \- \- \- \-** **WHERE/WHEN** To start the night, we will be meeting nearby at the Thirsty Bear pub in Waterloo at 7:30pm to give you a chance to meet and with your fellow bowlers.
