We've been to several Mulligans courses on our Crazy World of Minigolf Tour and look forward to checking out the two courses at the Mulligans Guildford venue in the future.

About Mulligans Guildford.

Mulligans Guildford, the new home of two exciting 9-hole crazy golf courses, powered by state-of-the-art technology is now open.

The newest Mulligans venue houses 18-holes of minigolf, based on Night Life and Street Life, with themes including disco, complete with glitter balls and a disco wall for photo opportunities, casino, featuring a working roulette wheel, and holes based on global destinations such as surfers’ paradise, inspired by TV’s Bondi Beach, and a mini version of the iconic Golden Gate Bridge.

More than just minigolf.

The two-floor venue also features high-tech activities including electro-darts and electro-shuffleboard, as well as American pool tables and classic arcade games including air hockey, curved air hockey, skeeball and basketball.

Food & Drink at Mulligans Guildford.

Mulligans isn’t all about the games, it’s also the perfect place to grab a cold drink or bite to eat this summer. A brand-new burger menu includes a Signature Chicken Burger (£14.50), with buttermilk & rosemary chicken in a pretzel bun with avocado, hot honey and bacon, and LP’s World Famous Signature Burger (£14.50) which features a beef burger in a pretzel bun with tater tots, caramelised onion, bacon, chilli jam and American cheese. On Mondays, guests can get their hands on two burgers for just £20.

Those that prefer sharing can tuck into Pizzas (2 for £20 on Tuesdays), Nachos, customisable Dirty Fries, or a selection of small plates including Crispy Chicken Tacos, Ruby’s Corn Ribs and Warm Halloumi Bites with Hot Honey.

Mulligans Guildford is also serving a range of delicious cocktails and mocktails, as well as frozen treats from a new ice cream and milkshake bar, making it the ideal pit-stop to cool down after a summer day out.

Mulligans Guildford is taking over the former sites of TGI Friday’s, Slice and the iconic Cinderella’s Nightclub and is being brought to life by internationally renowned designer Zachary Pulman, who also designed venues for global brands Swingers and Top Golf.

Commenting on the new venue in Guildford, Adventure Leisure’s Chief Operating Officer, Stephen Brown, said "It’s less than a month to go until we open the doors to Mulligans Guildford, and we can’t wait! We’re busy putting the finishing touches to the venue, to make sure we’re hosting the best summer possible, whether you’re meeting friends for a round of golf and a catch-up, hosting all your mates for the ultimate end of term party, or just want to pop in for a milkshake to cool down."

Happy 39th 'birthday' to Pac Man

Pac Man was first released in North American on this day in 1980.

A small selection of the Pac-Man stuff in my ever-growing collection

The 22nd May is considered to be Pac Man's 'official' birthday.

Waka waka waka

Back in the 1980's you could get Pac-Man breakfast cereal. I saw this old box at the Cereal Killer Cafe in Birmingham

But hey, why not celebrate the brilliant video game character as often as possible!

I've been playing Pac-Man arcade games for years

It'll soon be time to dig out my Pac-Man Christmas jumper for the festive season

We've seen Pac-Man pop-up in a number of official and unofficial spots on our travels.

A day out in Rhyl

I had a lovely day out in Rhyl, North Wales yesterday. Once the torrential rain had cleared it was a pleasant afternoon for a wander.

Rhyl beach

I met up with my friend and minigolf partner Peter 'The Crazy Aced Assassin' Jones. While we didn't get to play any minigolf we did have a couple of games of Air Hockey. Peter is renowned in the minigolf world for his skills on the Air Hockey table and he comprehensively defeated me two-nil in games, with wins of 7-3 and 21-3!

Air Hockey in Rhyl

I've never known a game go beyond nine-points, so how we got to play a match for 24-points I'll never know. I was 18-nil down before I got a point on the board. Still, at least I drew the last six-points of the game.

The Air Hockey I lost 21-3 on had the paddles secured to the table!

We had a walk around the town and seafront and took a look at the miniature golf courses there.

Gravitee Adventure Golf in Oxford

A visit to Gravitee Adventure Golf at the Ozone Leisure Park in Oxford.

Gravitee Adventure Golf in Oxford

We were recently back in my home town of Abingdon-on-Thames for a special Bun Throwing event and while down south took the opportunity to swing by the new Gravitee Adventure Golf courses at the Ozone Leisure Park next to the Kassam Stadium in Oxford.

Gravitee Adventure Golf is home to two 18-hole courses - the Space Odyssey and the Galactic Explorers - and they became the 852nd and 853rd visited on our Crazy World of Minigolf Tour.

Gravitee Adventure Golf is the sister course of The Golfing Hole in Swindon. We had a brilliant time playing that layout back in January 2015.

The new Gravitee Adventure Golf layouts are superb and we had two fun rounds there.

A very smaller crater to putt through

It was the first time in over twenty years that I had a game of minigolf with my parents! It's amazing to think that Emily and I have visited so many courses in the last twelve years, but not had a game during our travels.

A pair of Galactic Explorers on the course

The matches were very close, with my dad Chris taking an early lead on the Space Odyssey course, before a disastrous seven on the tenth hole put a dent in his hopes of winning.

Emily took the victory on the Space Odyssey layout with a round of 47. I shot a 49, Chris a 53 and my mum Mary carded a 56. Emily and my dad were the only players to hit a hole-in-one, both acing the 18th.

Moving on to the Galactic Explorers course and Emily took a fine win with a score of 42. I was second again with a round of 46, while my mum and dad both shot rounds of 50.

Almost a hole-in-one by what looks like Zaphod Beeblebrox!

Putting on the Galactic Explorers course at Gravitee Golf

We really enjoyed our competitive and fun rounds on the Gravitee Golf courses and had a drink in the bar area to cool off after the games. I also had a game of Air Hockey against my dad, which I won 7-4.

The theming at the indoor Adventure Golf venue is fantastic. The courses were built by the team at HM Adventure Golf. The Martian landscape on the Galactic Explorers course is incredibly well done, while the UV glow-in-the-dark section of the Space Odyssey course is the best I've seen on my travels.
