Let me see now. 42 > 0 therefore no, I can't. I can probably score zero 42 times though

You mean there's someone else as talented as me?

Well I scored 38 on one memorable occasion - maybe I can improve just enough this time

Hey Amy, maybe if we bowled in teams then together we could get -42? Or maybe if I get a point for every pin I knock down in the next lane then we might actually win

I think that's achievable, Tink.

Do I get bonus points for following a strike/spare with a 0? I realise this entails my knocking all the pins down first, but I have done that before.

I wish I understood that.
Oh, and I see from your name that congratulations are in order.

Cheers, Amy. You're the first to spot that.
A strike is knocking all the pins down with one ball and a spare is doing so with two. I could mention doubles and turkeys, but I think we're unlikely to need that terminology.

Y'know when you told me that you didn't have to be good at pool as long as you learnt the phrases and could bluff people into thinking you were good at pool... does the same apply for bowling?

Oh I don't know. "A double of Wild Turkey" is the sort of terminology really I like

Is there a vegetarian option? Can I get a double of tame quorn?

Y'know I think we're going to loose this bowling match/game/thing Amy

Well, did it work? Are people now convinced that I am king of the pins?
I don't think so, but you will remain vegetarian as long as you don't get three strikes in a row.

Yeah, well done baggy- puss, I don't have my results yet (and therefore have no fingernails left to speak of!)
