Love it, I have been encouraging my DH to take up a social activity as these days he hardly ever leaves our property. Finally a few months ago he agreed to accompany a friends husband once a week to Lawn Bowls. He now tells people that he has taken up "that old mans game" when referring to bowls. I have to constantly point out to him that people of all ages play lawn bowls however he still thinks of it as an old mans game. I should say my husband is 72 and one of the oldest people there. Smile
