Wacky Waving Inflatable Arm-Flailing Tube-Men in Felixstowe

There's a pair of Wacky Waving Inflatable Arm-Flailing Tube-Men in Felixstowe, Suffolk.

Our friend Sophia Cook spotted these two Wacky Waving Inflatable Arm-Flailing Tube-Men on a recent trip to Felixstowe.

I don't often need another reason to visit Felixstowe - it's probably our most visited seaside - but now I have two! I'm looking forward to finding these airdancers later this summer.

Inflatable advertising in Bredbury, Stockport

A piece of inflatable advertising in Stockport.

Last year I spotted a piece of inflatable advertising at the Super Shine Hand Car Wash in Bredbury, Stockport. On a recent drive to Hyde I noticed that the red and yellow inflatable character had changed to a blue and white one!

While it's not an airdancer (aka a 'wacky waving inflatable arm flailing tube-man' - my favourite type of inflatable advertising) it's still fun to see it flagging down passing drivers to get their cars cleaned.

We've seen quite a few wacky waving inflatable arm-flailing tube-men on our travels over the years and they're always fun to spot and see what they're advertising.

I do enjoy spotting wacky waving inflatable arm-flailing tube men advertising stuff. But I don't see them often enough for my liking. The last one we saw was a Santa airdancer in Dereham, Norfolk last November.

So it was a real treat when I spotted this fellow while walking home from Stockport town centre on Saturday afternoon!

It's only the second Santa Airdancer we've seen on our travels.

The first Father Christmas Windy Man I spotted was in Cheadle Heath back in 2016.

We looked in the store and online but couldn't find one of the Father Christmas Airdancers for sale.

The last wacky waving inflatable arm flailing tube man of any description we saw was before the coronavirus pandemic on a trip to Ashton-under-Lyne where we spotted a wacky waving inflatable arm flailing tube man advertising Albion Mill Carpets.

What a difference a year makes

A look back at our minigolfing visits to Leicester in 2019.

We competed in the Caddyshackers Open minigolf tournament at Caddyshackers Crazy Golf in Leicester last year.

We were joined in the team event by our friends and often minigolf rivals Brad 'The Fist' Shepherd and Jam 'Jamdre the Giant' Trubridge.

The Before Times!

Having qualified for the grand final we returned a week later.

Natural social distancing before social distancing was a thing

The Caddyshackers Crazy Golf course was the 903rd visited on our Crazy World of Minigolf Tour.

While in the city we also swung by the new Treetop Adventure Golf venue at the Highcross Shopping Centre.

Emily and I also returned to Leicester as a stop-off en route to East Anglia in September.

It looks highly unlikely that we'll be travelling anywhere this year.

2020 has pretty much gone down the pan

It'll be nice to revisit Leicester again in the future when it's safe to do so.

We've also been to minigolf courses at Blaby Golf Centre and Charnwood Golf Complex in Leicestershire.

On my travels last month I saw three wacky waving inflatable arm flailing tube men. They're always fun to see and I'd gone quite a while without seeing any.

It's always fun seeing airdancer advertising

So it was a nice surprise to see one advertising Albion Mill Carpets while we were exploring Ashton-under-Lyne.

Last month I saw a wacky waving inflatable arm flailing tube man on The Clubhouse Stoke's Crazy Golf course in Newcastle-Under-Lyme, another advertising Mr Bubbli's Car Wash in Leicester and an airdancer advertising Stockport Powder Coating Ltd.

Inflatable advertising at Domino's Pizza in Manchester

We're on a bit of a run in seeing inflatable advertising on our travels.

Yesterday I saw a wacky waving inflatable arm flailing tube man promoting Stockport Powder Coating Ltd and a few weeks ago we saw a wacky waving inflatable arm flailing tube man on The Clubhouse Stoke's Crazy Golf course in Newcastle-Under-Lyme and another wacky waving inflatable arm flailing tube man advertising Mr Bubbli's Car Wash in Leicester.

While having an evening out in Manchester on Tuesday we spotted an inflatable piece of advertising at Domino's Pizza on Grosvenor Street. The takeaway was doing a booming trade.

Wacky waving inflatable arm flailing tube air-dancers and other inflatable advertising are some of the most fun and eye-catching ways to promote a business. They certainly stand out!
