@WalkingWicket37

Done Cam, looking forward to it although sounds like you have some proper players turning up so I may be a bit out classed 😕

Cost is £110 for 4 hours in lane 1 without a bowling machine.

So have you not booked a bowling machine?  :(
4 hours would be a struggle for a marathon runner! Plus there are going to be times when there may only be 2 or 3 people there? 1 batting, 1/2 bowling? Won't work well! The bowling machine if £5/hour so worth a couple of extra quid?

Phew! I had a vision of everyone getting up on the following morning still aching from 4 hours of bowling!
Perfect fella!

And Dan does work on Saturdays when they are busy, which I suspect they are now? Dan was on 2 weeks holiday last time I popped in but should be back now.

Just reading the Terms & Conditions

It says max 6 per lane, with 8 (at your own risk) at managers discretion.
Anyone know how closely this is monitored.

And can we use the excuse "there's 10 of us here, but only 6-8 using the lane"?  :-[

Lane 1 is closest to the exit of the nets.
So a couple of people can sit immediately outside the net sorting through bats! There is also a bar as well!  ;)
I suspect that it's unlikely that there would be 10 or more people there for all 4 hours? So we can sort as/when someone arrives? So if there are 6 or 7 in the net and someone arrives, then 1 or 2 can go for a rest and drink?

I think the main reason could be if there are too many people in a net waiting t bowl, then a few may be in danger of being hit by balls if Net 2 is being used at the same time. So if Net 2 is not being used, then they may be a little more laid back with numbers?
