Whilst we’re in the heat of summer it’s a great time to enjoy some friendly fun with your friends, family or on a nice date. Whether the weather wants to hold up or not there’s always fun to be had with mini-golf. Not everyone can get into the usual 18 hole golf, it can be long and quiet, and you have to shoot into a normal hole and not a dinosaur mouth or something. When you want to be with friends you want to have fun. Mini-golf has endless themes and has great fun waiting for you. Everyone enjoys getting competitive especially over some ridiculous mini golf game. So here’s a list of some fun spots to get your mini-golf on.  Starting off in South London there is a great 18 hole course. The Dragon Quest Adventure Golf is as you guessed it themed around dragons.

A casual game of golf or football can quickly bring out the most competitive side of you and the people you're with, especially when the fight talk comes out, that’s when you start placing the bets on who’s getting the rounds in after. As much as it can get super competitive, you’ll always go back because it’s just too much fun. So here’s a few places you can go to win a few rounds in, if you’re feeling confident in yourself. Maybe pick one you know you're good at. Starting off with a classic, right from the decks of cruise ships in the early 20th century, we have shuffleboarding.

London Shuffle started as a pop up and has now taken a permanent place in Shoreditch, a big beautiful space with an open air shuffleboard t...

National Relaxation Day couldn't have come sooner. What with every inch of the internet talking about mercury in retrograde, I think we all need a minute to breathe. As the day falls on a weekday, unfortunately, most people will be at work. This shouldn't stop you from having a stress free day though! I am here to give you some ideas about how to spend your day (or evening if you have to work). Sit back and relax. Pamper Day If you are currently in bed or at home reading this, then you are one of the lucky ones. Do not waste this opportunity, spend the day pampering yourself!

Today is about you and creating a stress-free environment.  Beach Day You may be th...
