the unwanted bench

See you've got me thinking now  Who owns the benches? 

Assume it's the Council. I wonder if you could lease them in your town, or do a deal where you will tidy them up as some are obviously scruffy. Then paint them bright colours in your logo, with your web address and phone number!

Turn them into a marketing tool, rather than a little plaque that says Doris loved to sit here and watch the pigeons...

Am I genius that needs to trademark this, or showing signs of insanity? 

Is that the bench that nobody sits on? Seems like its facing the wrong way. Aren't benches supposed to face towards the street?

My thoughts exactly!

Maybe thats why nobody sits on it 

And it's right by the bin, so it'll stink

This reminds me of a couple of tweets from a couple of weeks ago...

Clearly it's a common issue! 

I bet more people sit on that bench, than use the telephone box....

Blimey telephone boxes, remember them? Hardly see any these days round our area. Who would have imagined that 30 years ago!

Oh I miss phone boxes. .. We used to have such fun making crank calls when I was a teen! We'd often call one box from the other across the street and freak people out by saying we could see them by describing what they were wearing!  

lol naughty naughty
