Attempt Twenty Nine

LAST MEAL: Pork chops and creamy mash with green beans.
SUPPLEMENTARY TRAINING: More long marathon training style runs.
METHOD OF FOCUS: Target assurance in a non-profit environment.
LUCKY LANE NUMBER: 3
BEST SCORE TO DATE: 164
CUMULATIVE NUMBER OF STRIKES: 41

Bad news, Ocean Bowl fans. I have decided to take a short break from trying to get a perfect score for the next six weeks or so. This isn't a coincidence; it's mutually beneficial for the bowl as they are exceptionally busy in the Summer months and it also means I can take my children to the beach and the castles and the steam trains and the go-karts...

This meant I had to work really hard to go out with a bang, a plan that went out of the window as soon as I realised that I had left my new ball at home and so had to rely on my faithful green companion. A good start meant I lost my focus a little and dropped vital points by not dropping vital pins. My score is therefore a perfect graph of overconfidence followed by attempting to regain said confidence.

I let myself down, I let you all down but, worst of all, I let myself down again. I did get a strike though and I haven't seen one of those in a couple of weeks.
