A place I only saw the outside off Scoopy when we picked the old yin up, did you play at Corsies new place that I mentioned above ? I note prior to it closing Corsie blamed poor membership numbers but I could guess one of the reasons were they were too corporate and more interested in selling afternoon teas and 3 course meal packages, thats certainly the impression I had when I enquired about joining although I appreciate it was a business and he had to recoup his cash outlay and doubt he would have achieved that by just rink hire for an hour or two but I felt it tried to be too elitist
I played a few times but it didn't think it was as good as Milton Street.

It was smart inside with a lovely resteruant but it was aimed at the wrong clientelle. Bowlers are typically ordinary people with not a lot of extra cash.

With that shutting and Portobello closing we did pick up a lot of members at East Lothian.
