I would like to offer my congratulations to Devika and Muralee Tharan, who recently opened the area’s first ten-pin bowling alley, uStrike. I went along on Friday night with a few friends. I had seen it described as a ‘four-lane state-of-the-art bowling alley’ and I would say that’s what it is! Really well furnished, no expense spared and professional service.
A recurring comment I heard while campaigning was that our county council isn’t doing enough in the way of children and youth facilities in Newtown.
My answer to that was rather than the focusing on council providing further facilities, our council should be encouraging and supporting local entrepreneurs.
The council is pretty strapped for cash and unfortunately leisure and recreation facilities are always going to be pushed to the bottom of the list when money is short. It is great news that the town has now got this facility. I don’t know Devika and Muralee Tharan, but they have obviously taken a risk in this venture and I just hope that the all those who have called for more facilities will support this business.
I came last in our match so will definately be going back again to improve my technique!
