    Default Hi from Australia.

    Hi, My name is Jim Cross, and I live in a costal town called Ballina, in Australia. I started bowling in 1961, just after bowling was introduced in this country. I was 27 years old at the time. I'm a bit older than that now. Not bowling at the moment, after 2 lots of shoulder surgery. In a few months, I intend to bowl again. Havent bowled for all of those years. Bowled initially 'til 1963, stopped and resumed again in 1995, for about 6 years, then a few years off and then started again 2 years ago.
    My shoulder was a problem however, though I did manage an average in the 190s and a high series of 749 during that period. I expect to do better now my shoulder is repaired ( I hope) I even intent to buy a new ball, I don't know how old the one is that I've been using, or what brand it is unless i went and looked.
    This looks like a great site. Glad I found it.
    Who knows what I may learn.
    Cheers, Jim.
