On Tuesday 1st of October I headed along to Regent's Place in London where the team at UrbanCrazy had set-up their Signature Minigolf course between 11am and 1pm.
The free-play event saw visitors to Regent's Place have a go on the tricky 9-hole layout*. When I arrived UrbanCrazy's Richard Linden let me know that the best score had been set at 20!

Last November I'd played the UrbanCrazy Signature Minigolf course when it made its debut at the London Golf Show at Earl's Court. Since then there have been some changes and additions to the course - including the addition of a Casino hole.

The visit was the first on the next leg of the Crazy World of Minigolf Tour as the 30th of September had marked the seventh year of
our travels around many and varied Miniature Golf courses. The Regent’s Place
layout was the 537th Minigolf course visited, 322nd played by either me or
Emily, and my 320th course since 2006!

For my round on the course I was challenged by
UrbanCrazy's Marcin Roszczyk.
In a closely fought match-up I scored a 21(+3) to just defeat him as he shot a 24(+6). My ace on the third may have been the difference maker in the match.

The late morning and early afternoon of fun and games at
Regent's Place also saw the team from Gastro Circus making Mocktails. I enjoyed
the Nohito, very refreshing it was after a round of Crazy Golf. I did get some
odd looks while drinking it as I made my return journey on the tube!
