14 Problems Only People From Milton Keynes Will Understand

11. How Great Bowling Was

Yes, bowling! It€™s Friday night, you€™re sixteen, and you haven€™t managed to age quickly enough to get into Oceana yet; but never fear, the bowling alley is here. Before you discovered alcohol, your weekends were spent playing two games for the price of one at the bowling alley in Xscape, drinking slush puppies, and flirting with the older boys who were on the lane next to you (and they were old enough to buy expensive drinks at the bar €“ jealous!) Bowlplex was all the rage €“ and when you were finished (usually by 8pm), you€™d head to the arcade for some Dance Mat fun. You were a pro at that arcade game; no one could beat you as you jumped around to Sway by Mucha Mumbo racking up all those points.

I love Stephen King and music festivals; I eat my toast upside down; I daydream about getting married probably a bit too much; and I wish every day for a pet sausage dog puppy (who never materialises – sob).
