algy   11 #4 Posted May 25, 2007 I remember when the bowling alley first opened in the early/mid-60's the first manager was a former pupil at Firth Park Grammar School, and came up to school to suggest that the boys might like to form a bowling league. He was politely shown the door as the headmaster did not think it an appropriate sport for us boys, so we all went down after school and formed a league anyway!
