Gay Bowling (March)

London Lads are delighted to invite you to our Gay Tenpin bowling event, for an evening of great bowling, banter and beers with plenty of great blokes! You will get to play two games of bowling with friendly gay guys in an attitude-free and clique-free group. It's a couple of days before St Patrick's Day, so maybe the luck of the Irish will be with you! Well anyway, it's a great opportunity to socialise, have fun and make some new friends! THE EXCLUSIVE DEAL... Bowling will cost £13, giving you two games of bowling PLUS a voucher for an alcoholic drink (pint of beer, cider or guinness / glass of wine / spirit with mixer / bottled drink, etc). If you prefer not to have the drink voucher, then you can simply pay £11 for the two games of bowling without the drink. THE PLAN OF ACTION... We will gather at 7pm and aim to start the bowling games at 7.30pm. Please be prompt. Any arrivals after 7.45pm may not get to play in the first game, but can wait and join a lane for the second game (£5 for the one game, subject to lane spaces being available). If you think you are going to be late, then please message us to let us know you will still be coming! PAYMENT You pay £1 entry at the main door and the larger of the two receipts you will be given is a voucher worth £1 and is refundable against any purchase. If they are really busy at the main entrance they will often let you straight through without paying the £1. You must pay the organisers inside for the bowling deal and not go to the bowling counter. We no longer take the £1 entry voucher as part payment. We prefer cash payment - especially if you can try and have the correct amount in cash. There are cash machines in the shopping centre (Tesco Metro, Santander, TSB), so stop off first if necessary, plus the bowling venue offers cashback on debit card purchases. They do have an ATM, but this is not always working. London Lads can now process Debit or Credit card purchases, but we will charge an extra 50p payment processing fee on top of the amount due. IF YOU ARE NEW.... If you're new, then you are very welcome to come along and join! Just RSVP and find us in the venue on the night and you'll receive a warm welcome! BOWLING WITH YOUR BUDDIES... If you want to come along and specifically bowl with your buddies, we can cater for this but still ask that you socialise with the other guys, especially those playing in the same lane as you. Please agree this with your friends in advance and hand in your bowling forms together. If you are coming as part of a group of four or more people, then you are also very welcome, but we ask that one person in the group be the group contact and message us at least before midday on the day with a rough idea of the number of people in your group. If you have less than six people, or more than eight people, in your group, then we will need to add other people to your lane(s). We will do our very best to keep you all together in neighbouring lanes. We ask that you still socialise with the other guys, especially those playing in the same lane as you who are not in your group. DO I HAVE TO BOWL? If we have already met you at one of our recent events, then you can join us simply to socialise - please do still RSVP. You will have to pay the £1 entry to the venue (refundable against any purchase). Other optional activities available on the night include such things as air hockey, table football, arcade games and pool, plus the venue serves quite a selection of fast food options for those a little peckish or coming straight from work. KEEP IT FRIENDLY... Antisocial behaviour or discrimination of any kind is not welcome at our events. If you are not in the mood to socialise with other guys on the day then please do not attend. Behaviour of a cruising nature is also not welcome. Please let one of the team know ASAP of any unwelcome behaviour you experience or see others in our group subjected to.
