Long winded4
I had thought this recording was going to explain how bowls in played and scored ... hence its name the story of bowls. This was not the case and ultimately there was a little on how the game was founded or where it derived from. That said, this recording is about two hours long but it is a meticulous archive to the tournament, competitions, olympics and commonwealth games. It will be very valuable for someone who plays bowls. Even so, it is a little too long to find the recording verging on the description of boring! Nevertheless, not bad for the right person.
