Camelon Bowling Club.

Camelon Bowling Club was established in 1872 so next year the club will be enjoying their 150 anniversary. There's not much more about the club online, but they must be one of the oldest in Scotland, The Scottish Bowling Association wasn't formed until twenty years later in 1892.

I must admit I have never played "bools" but my Uncle James was a keen player, and my hometown, Loanhead had two clubs, The Miners Club, and Loanhead Bowling Club, not as it is known, The Private Club, to differentiate it from The more open Miners Club, which all members could make use off. As with golf, the game of Bowls, as it is played nowadays, owes its existence to the Scots. The rules are broadly similar all around the World.

Following on a meeting in Glasgow in 1848, attended by about two hundred players from various clubs all with different Laws for playing the game, W.W. Mitchell of Glasgow, drew up a "uniform code of Laws", and these are the basis of all subsequent Laws.

  In 1892, the Scottish Bowling Association was formed and in 1893, it drew up rules or Laws based on Mitchell's Code and also published a Code of Ethics. The Association is now known as Bowls Scotland.

  There are currently 56,630 bowlers in Scotland, registered with 842 clubs, so it's a popular sport. Bowls historians believe that the game developed from the Egyptians. One of their pastimes was to play skittles with round stones. This has been determined based on artefacts found in tombs dating circa 5,000 B.C. The sport spread across the world and took a variety of forms, Bocce (Italian), Bolla (Saxon), Bolle (Danish), Boules (French) and Ula Miaka (Polynesian). The sport of lawn bowls is the forerunner of curling, a tremendously popular winter version played in northern countries.

Ochil Hills from Camelon Public Park yesterday morning.

A range of hills in Central Scotland, the Ochils extend for more than 24 miles eastwards from Dunblane and Bridge of Allan, two towns I love to walk between, and can't wait to jump on a train and walk along the Allan Water again.

Dumyat and Ben Cleuch are two of the well know hills in the range, but for me it is most famous for another hill, Abbey Craig, where Sir William Wallace and Sir Andrew de Moray stood watching the English approach Stirling Bridge before the battle in September  1297.
