For their latest cultural outing, the Grumpy Old Men ventured into Nottingham, to try out the Scrapyard (Crazy) Golf, which is located upstairs at the Bowling Alley, next to Nottingham Arena.
The 9 hole ‘course’ is constructed from various bits of metalwork, including the rear end of a pensioned-off car, and several Grumpies were to be found taking apart a complex bit of machinery at one point, in order to retrieve a golf ball.
We then progressed through the Lace Market, heading for the Keen’s Head, a Castle Rock pub near St. Mary’s Church, which was ideal for the group photo. Finally, a short walk uphill took us to Wetherspoons, which we have frequented on several recent occasions.
Thanks to Ian Murray for organising this cultural excursion. Our next planned event will be skittles, at the British Legion in Hucknall on Monday 9th September. Do get in touch if you would like to join the Grumpies.
