Glo Crazy in Harlow, Essex

We recently heard there's an indoor Crazy Golf course in Harlow, Essex.

The 12-hole UV glow in the dark Crazy Golf course is called Glo Crazy and can be found at the Q Entertainment centre in the town.

Check out the Glo Crazy website for more info.

It's another course we'll have to visit on our never-ending quest to visit every minigolf course in the UK. When we began in 2006 there were 600 courses. To date we've visited 853, including 38 courses overseas.

Dragon's Lair Mini Golf in North Wildwood, New Jersey

A look at the Dragon's Lair Mini Golf course in North Wildwood, New Jersey, USA.

Many thanks to Adam Lueb for sending over these great photos from his visit to the Dragon's Lair Mini Golf course in North Wildwood New Jersey. Another course we'd love to visit!

It's interesting to see a glow in the dark medieval themed course. I bet my brother, and charter member of the Crazy World Minigolf Tour, Christopher would love to play the course too. He's really into knights and castles.

Check out the guest blog posts from Adam's visits to minigolf course at Funspot New Hampshire and Bermuda Fun Golf.

On Adam's trip to Bermuda he had to follow some green feet to another course!

Many thanks again to Adam for the snaps from Dragon's Lair. Do give him a follow on Instagram.

Graffiti Golf in Blackpool

A visit to play Graffiti Golf in Blackpool.

After visiting more than 800 courses since 2006 you'd think we'd have run out of new things to see on our Crazy World of Minigolf Tour. But you'd be wrong.

For last week we played a course in Blackpool that had a Graffiti Pirate theme!

Pirate Graffiti Golf! I suppose all graffiti is technically a 'pirate' activity

Back in 2009 the course was a 'normal' indoor Pirate Adventure Golf course and the 151st played on our travels. Since then the venue has changed hands a couple of times. In 2016 it was a Merlin Pirate Adventure Mini Golf course.

This time however things were very different again as the layout is now a UV glow in the dark experience.

We all score a hole-in-one, except Jo. Although none of us aced this hole

In our match-up on the Graffiti Golf course Emily won with a round of 31. I was runner-up on 35, with Emily's sister Jo and our nephew Luke tied on 39.

Ghetto Golf at the Custard Factory in Birmingham

A revisit to the Ghetto Golf course at the Custard Factory in Digbeth, Birmingham.

Over the weekend we revisited the Ghetto Golf course at the Custard Factory in Digbeth, Birmingham. Last year the indoor Crazy Golf course became the 780th course visited on our Crazy World of Minigolf Tour.

Ghetto Golf is a Cool Spot to visit

Sonic the Hedgehog appears on the final hole (Final Zone?)

Super Mario can be found on the course too

As can Donkey Kong!

The final few holes are all retro videogame related

I love this piece of artwork and the use of the wall

The last Blockbuster in the UK?

A sporting hybrid of tenpin bowling and minigolf

There's also a Ghetto Golf course in Liverpool that we're yet to visit. Check out the Ghetto Golf website for opening times and prices.

Junkyard Golf heading to Leeds

A new Junkyard Golf course is opening at The Light in Leeds.

The team at Junkyard Golf are taking their brand of indoor Crazy Golf to The Light in Leeds city centre.

The new Junkyard Golf course in Leeds will feature three courses

We've played the Junkyard Golf courses in Manchester and London on our Crazy World of Minigolf Tour, but still need to visit the course in Oxford.

For more information visit the Junkyard Golf website.

Many thanks to Leeds-based artist Jack Hurley for the tip-off about the course opening.

Crazy Golf at Roxy Ball Room in Manchester

Checking out the new indoor Crazy Golf course at Roxy Ball Room in Manchester.

Last week I had a round at a new local minigolf course here in Manchester as Roxy Ball Room on Deansgate has added an 18-hole indoor Crazy Golf course to the pool, beer pong and table tennis on offer at the venue.

The Roxy Ball Room Crazy Golf course was the 810th minigolf course visited on our Crazy World of Minigolf Tour.

It wasn't a particularly easy course and while I managed to get two holes-in-one my total score was 59!

To play the first 9-holes was £9 and it was £15 to play all 18-holes. It was the first time I've seen that pricing system in operation.
