Colourful greens!

The end of old-style golf has finally arrived. No more ruinous club fees or walking 'til you drop. Thanks to a brightly-coloured mini golf course called My Minigolf, you can now play a round anywhere you like - in the garden, the living room or in scuba gear at the bottom of the pool.

The kit contains a nine-hole miniature golf course with 13 obstacles, two steel clubs, four balls, a scorecard and a large nylon hold-all for carrying it all around. With a loop, a spiral, a bridge and various other features you won't find on a standard course, you can play to your heart's content. But don't forget to yell "fore!" if you hit it too high.

Tackle a Yackle

Throwing a Frisbee is a fine sort of game for the park - until you fumble a catch and stop the spinning plate with your face.

Try the new X-shaped Yackle ball; you might feel less threatened by a short round of catch and throw.

The Yackle ball is made from soft, squidgy vinyl, so stopping it with your face hurts nothing but your dignity. It has a water-resistant skin so you can enjoy it in any weather, in your backyard or in the pool. The X-shape gives it impressive aerodynamics and momentum, and it will fly further than an American football, without needing a superman throw.
