A Levin indoor bowler laughs when he thinks that just a few years ago he was classed as a junior bowler.
John Boy Walton still finds it funny to think he was called a "junior". It just that the 92-years-old didn't take up the sport until he was in his
early 80s.
"I loved that. They used to call me a junior," he said.
He had played bowls originally as a young man in Scotland, but that was more than 60 years ago, and he was relishing a chance to rekindle his love for the game.
Walton was a sailor who went sea in 1942 at 15. He spent the next 27 years at sea.
