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.

Bart Simpson at Stonham Barns Crazy Golf

A bootleg Bart on a miniature golf course.


Stonham Barns Crazy Golf
The Crazy Golf course at Stonham Barns was the 33rd visited on our Crazy World of Minigolf Tour back in August 2007. We've now been to 949 courses since 2006

The old Crazy Golf course at Stonham Barns Golf Park has now been replaced by the Smugglers Bay Adventure Golf course. That was the 815th we visited.

Little Thief

I'm missing being out and about in Manchester. Every time I have a wander around the city centre I spot a new piece of street art.

Looking through my snaps from previous walks round town I spotted this Little Thief sticker by GRW82 Greatt Whyte.

We spotted Blade Brown barbers while having a wander last week.

I wasn't familiar with this shop before last week. A sign I need a haircut perhaps...

We recently saw the Resident Needle tattoo studio in Woodley, Stockport too.

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 Kitchen A-Team

If you need a new kitchen, if no one else can help, and if you can find them, maybe you can hire - THE QUOTATION TEAM!

The Waste Team in Leeds and The Natural Tile Company in Belfast have cool A-Team vans too.
