The Flintstones Crazy Golf

A look back at The Flintstones Crazy Golf course at Bowleaze Cove in Weymouth, Dorset.

The scorecard from Tee Time Miniature Golf in Ocean City, New Jersey that I recently blogged about reminded me of The Flintstones Crazy Golf course at Bowleaze Cove in Weymouth.

That course was the 77th visited on our Crazy World of Minigolf Tour back in October 2008. It's long gone now.

A Scooby Doo Ice Cream Van

Spotting a Scooby Doo Ice Cream Van at Mayflower Park in Southampton.

It's always fun seeing ice cream van artwork and we saw this Scooby Doo Ice Cream Van at Mayflower Park in Southampton, Hampshire last month.

The Simpsons art on an ice cream van

We spotted an interestingly decorated ice cream van in Cheadle on Friday.

It's always fun seeing The Simpsons in unexpected places

It's not the first time we've seen The Simpsons on an ice cream van - we saw this one in Leeds and another in Cheadle Heath.

This was on the High Street rather than Abbey Road

Resident Needle

I don't think I could've seen a better business name, sign and shopfront during my pandemic lockdown daily outdoor exercise than this one in Woodley Precinct, Stockport!

What voice would you use to say this shop name out loud?

The Flintstones Crazy Golf course in Bowleaze Cove, Weymouth. October 2009

The Flintstones Crazy Golf course at Bowleaze Cove in Weymouth was the 77th visited on our Crazy World of Minigolf Tour back in October 2008. I replayed it in 2009.

It's now a lost course.

The Simpsons ice cream van art

Spotting another Simpsons ice cream van.

It's always fun spotting Simpsons stuff while out and about and the family often appear in the artwork on ice cream vans, such as this glorious one we saw in Leeds.

We've also seen The Simpsons adorning Steve's Ices in Stockport.

The Simpsons Dodgems in Great Yarmouth

The Homer with no nose we saw in Great Yarmouth wasn't the only sighting of The Simpsons back in the summer of 2016. We also spotted the family on the dodgems.

The Simpsons ice cream van

We do enjoy spotting bootleg things and one of the best places to see them in use is on ice cream vans.

Continuing the bootleg Simpsons theme how about this for some ice cream van art we saw in Leeds last December.

'Homer Simpson' in Great Yarmouth

The chalkboard image of Homer Simpson that Emily spotted in Chicago reminded me of this 'Homer Simpson' we spotted in Great Yarmouth back in July 2016.

Where's Homer's nose?

The Flintstones Crazy Golf in Weymouth

A look back at The Flintstones Crazy Golf course at Bowleaze Cove in Weymouth.

I was looking through some of the weird and wacky Crazy Golf courses we've visited over the years and found this snap of me playing a 'Flintstones' themed course back in 2009.

Fred and Barney look on as I tee-off in Weymouth

The Flintstones Crazy Golf course at Bowleaze Cove was the 77th visited on our Crazy World of Minigolf Tour back in October 2008. I played it while in town to compete in the Weymouth Open tournament.

We've now visited 905 courses on our minigolfing travels since September 2006.

'Homer Simpson' and 'Peter Griffin' in Chicago

Emily found this superb chalkboard sign while in Chicago last month.

Someone is obviously better at drawing Peter Griffin.

Godfather Pizza in Leicester

More Godfather bootleg goodness.

We spotted the Godfather Pizza place while in Leicester to play Crazy Golf at the weekend

We've seen quite a few gangster-related businesses on our travels. There are a lot in Stockport!

seabay in Scarborough

Spotting the seabay shop in Scarborough.

We love visiting the seaside and enjoy spotting bootleg things, so it was a double-whammy when we saw the seabay shop in Scarborough's South Bay!

seabay!

Gizmo's Pizzeria in Morecambe

While walking along the promenade in Morecambe my bootleg senses began tingling and out of the corner of my eye I spotted the very busy Gizmo's Pizzeria!

Gizmo's Pizzeria in Morecambe

Gizmo's is open from 4pm to late - I hope it closes before midnight

Cheers - the off licence where everybody knows your name?

Having spotted the Cheers II pub in Worthing last month we noticed this Cheers off licence while down in Southampton.

The pub where everybody probably doesn't know your name.
