Fester, I'll take you to the bowling green, when it re-opens in March and you can try it for yourself. It's not as easy as it looks.
Don't bother Quiggs, I went last year twice with Mrs F, at The Oval ... we thoroughly enjoyed it and were looking forward to going often.
But then the wheels came off.
Some over officious bloke told us that we are not allowed to play there on any match days. They ONLY open it 2 days a week, and YES...ONLY on match days.
A nice way to be told to SOD OFF !!
