Basically because Ken and I were unsure exactly how many people were attending, and booking in advance is key.

where actually is this?

what's ned-indian food-bowling?

― s1ocki (slutsky), Wednesday, 27 July 2005 16:33 (twenty years ago)

Are you using Ned as the bowling ball, or the indian food?

― Leon C. (Ex Leon), Wednesday, 27 July 2005 16:33 (twenty years ago)

Or both? confusing.

aiming one at the other?

i think it's bowling done with food, in a ned-indian style.

Gareth -- the actual thread about this is here:

ping pong on Wednesday, Needlework on Thursday, BOWLING on a Friday night (29th July)

...but very few people seem to have noticed it. :-/

I don't think I can do the bowling in Queensway that late in the evening I'm afraid, but I hope to see you on Thursday night Neddy boy, if briefly.

Roxor etc.

The sheer number of ways to read this title is like dessert for the brain. I like the one where there's a celebrated traditional Indian sport known as food-bowling, which is now being imported and played with the local foodstuffs of nations across the world.

My head is counted for both.

I love how the title is so wonderfully baffling to people. It amuses me greatly. :-)

Also there's the possibility that "Ned" is an adjective: cf west-African lawn-mowing versus Ned-Indian food-bowling!

(Don't be too shocked if a tribe of tall square-jawed Indians in Swell Maps t-shirts come out and start ritualistically moving all the food into little bowls.)

― nabisco (nabisco), Wednesday, 27 July 2005 19:54 (twenty years ago)

Bastards. And where were they when I needed a cult?
