Terry's Traditional Crazy Golf in Cleethorpes

Looking back at Terry's Traditional Crazy Golf course in Cleethorpes, Lincolnshire.

On our holiday in Cleethorpes in May 2018 we revisited a number of miniature golf courses, two of which were Terry's Traditional Crazy Golf course and the Putting Green next to it.

When we arrived the courses were closed, as they were when we first visited in May 2011. Luckily the courses were open the next day so we were able to have a round.

It was nice to finally play the traditional seaside Crazy Golf course. It'd had a lick of paint since our last visit

Sadly Terry's Traditional Crazy Golf course has been demolished. We're glad we got to play the colourful and unique crazy golf layout on our Crazy World of Minigolf Tour.

We visited Anglia Square shopping centre several times when in the city. Mostly to go to Sutton Toys, an excellent retro and vintage toy and videogame shop - which has now relocated to Reepham Road in Norwich.

It was the last new minigolf course I played before the coronavirus pandemic lockdown hit the UK.

Signs of the coronavirus pandemic times

On this day in 2020 the World Health Organization (WHO) officially declared the coronavirus outbreak a global pandemic.


Six years ago already. Blimey.

Later that month - on the 23rd March 2020 - the UK effectively ceased 'normal operations' as the country was put into lockdown.

Once we were allowed out photographed as much Covid-19 Coronavirus Pandemic and Social Distancing signage and notices as we could to document the times.

There was certainly a real variety of warnings, instructions and directional signage to do with social distancing.

I documented a number of aspects of the coronavirus pandemic on my blog and social media while it was taking place.

As a marketing and communications professional, one of my areas of interest was the huge variety of official & unofficial warnings, instructions and directional signage there was around covid and social distancing.

It's still possible to see Covid-19 Coronavirus signage as 'ghost signs' today and I reckon the remnants of the pandemic will be visible for many years to come.

Crazy Golf in Brighton

Last week I asked 'Where in the world was this crazy golf course visited on our Crazy World of Minigolf Tour?'.


The Crazy Golf course East of Palace Pier in Brighton in July 2007

The answer was - Brighton, England.

The 18-hole Crazy Golf course East of the Palace Pier in Brighton, East Sussex was first visited in March 2007.
