A Day Out at BCK YRD GOLF

When the weather is nice, we go out and explore mini-golf places! We’ve been to several in the area; from dinosaurs to pirates, we’ve been to everything nearby. When the half term came up, the kids wanted to go to a new mini-golf place, despite the cold weather. As we didn’t want to get stuck in the rain, we looked for local places that were indoor, and came across BCK YRD GOLF, which wasn’t too far away!

I’ve had some experience working as a sole trader in the UK, and so I’ve pulled together three hints and tips for getting started. Many entrepreneurs might need financial help to grow their businesses at home.

How minimalist and careful-colour design can bring small spaces to life at home

We’ve previously written about how you can reinvent a small space, for instance, making the corner of a small room into a functional office space, and so I want to spend a little bit of time talking about some of my previous experience doing merchandising and layout work in retail and non-retail spaces, and about how lessons from that can help you further optimise a space.
