I have been trying to get dad on the lanes this last few weeks. He keeps trying to tell me he is too old. I have to say he is one of the bloody fittest 79year olds I have seen. Never stops working, only retired three years ago from work because he need another heart op.
But I will keep working on him.
The lovely wife and I are trying to get a web site up and running to show off dad's scrap books before they are too old to open. Hopefully by Christmas it will be sorted. Keep an eye out in a few months for www.joevelo.com
There are great articles on Steve and Eric in there too. A number of photos of the three of them on the podium of tournaments.
Mate if you can get Joe down to the bowl to see Steve, Eric, Batson and Lovey..... I am sure it will be worth the trip, bowling or no bowling....it will be a legendary catch up
G'day all
Would be great to see you back on the lanes Joe. Can still remember the game that you bowled alongside Terry Wenban at Illawarra when you both went 300 together.
Cheers
Mick
