LSE Goes Bowling!

23 November 2006. Having found out that most of the accessible bowling alleys in London (Hollywood Ball, All Stars, Bloomsbury, Queens, Trocadero) were fully-booked on this day (and for most of the weeknights on the run up to Christmas), we settled for Superbowl at Elephant & Castle for our LSE social night.

Situated on the top floor of the soon-to-be regenerated Elephant & Castle (E&C) shopping centre, going there was a literally a minute walk from the E&C tube station. Apart from being very accessible, Superbowl proved to be good value for money as we only paid GBP6 per game per person!

Jonathan (in a jumper with big stripes) also joined in the fun and challenge.

It was a good and fun bowling night. At 9.30pm, after having played two games for two hours (with air hockey and video games before that), everybody agreed it was time to have dinner (somewhere out of E&C). We hopped onto the Northern Line (and almost left Will) and got off at London Bridge station.

After saying goodnight to Jonathan and thanking him for putting up a good challenge (he beat us all on the first game but fell third on the last game), we strolled along Borough, went past Southwark Cathedral and passed through Vinopolis to Bankside, to stop and dine at Pizza Express.

From where we were situated, we had an amazing view of the City and St Pauls. Whilst tucking in our pizzas, we discussed further our plans for LSE Christmas meal - at Jenny's place. Another get-together to look forward to!
