The Waddingtons Crazy Golf Machine board game from 1995

This is the Crazy Golf Machine board game from Waddingtons.

It's a superb board game and a lot of fun to play. The set was created in 1995 and comes with all you need to play a round, from 'clubs' to balls and a whole host of crazy obstacles to putt through.

There was also a version released in the USA called the Goofy Golf Machine.

Have you played either of them? Do you know of any other variations of it?

Crazy Golf inside half of a derelict tennis court

A look at the Folkestone Sports Centre Crazy Golf back in 2010.

The Folkestone Sports Centre Crazy Golf course was one of the most unique minigolf courses we've been to on our Crazy World of Minigolf Tour.

We played the outdoor 9-hole crazy golf course back in September 2010 when it became the 198th course played on our travels.

The 9-hole crazy golf layout was very interesting to say the least. It was constructed out of what appeared to be part of a former skate/BMX park, and was located in half of a derelict tennis court beside a dry ski-slope!

Looking on the Folkestone Sports Centre website it looks like the crazy golf course is long gone.

Anyone for Tennis?

The former Woolworths in Selby

Spotting a Woolworth ghost sign in Selby, North Yorkshire.

We noticed the remains of a Woolworth sign on the former store on Gowthorpe in Selby while having a wander through the town.

Before its closure in 2009 the shop had been a Woolworths Local store.

Woolworth became Woolworths in 1984

It's now a Yorkshire Trading Company shop.

Crazy Golf at Pontins Prestatyn Sands Holiday Park in Wales

Looking back at a lost minigolf course.

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

The answer was at Pontins Prestatyn Sands Holiday Park in Wales.

We first played the course in 2014 and revisited it in 2017 and 2018.

Sadly the Pontins Prestatyn Sands Holiday Park has now closed down.

We're glad we got to stay at the holiday camp and play the course on our Crazy World of Minigolf Tour when we did.
