None!

Ha I'm back. Enough with these idle threats. Come on man up - admit you like bowls. Express your preference. Sorry Hardwood "ten pin" is not a type of bowl. Apparently it is some sort of sport practiced by people with a fetish for odd girly footwear.

Ha I return - you may remember me as "PerryGrovesWorld" ? but I digress from my real purpose for visiting this vibrant, active board.
Was the Bowler hat developed as a form of protective headwear for any wildly errant bowls ?

I believe the bowler hat was invented during the puritanical times when bowls was banned.
Groups of men, under the guise of 'fashion' would saunter around, wearing their new-fangled hats...
Then, at the behest of a secret command, they would all dive through some bushes onto a pre-pepared field..
There, with a quiet excitement, they would remove their bowlers to reveal...
BOWLS!
A quick clandestine game would ensue, and then, the bowls once again secreted in their cunning headwear..the men would reappear from the bushes, as ghostly as they dissapeared, and mingle again amongst the throngs.
