A bench in Jubilee Gardens, Blackpool, donated by Fylde Coast Men's Shed. I would join such an organization, but I dislike doing anything practical. Woodwork and technical drawing were my least favourite subjects at school.

Bonus question for the tags: if you answered "no," is that because there are already a lot of public benches where you live, or because you don't think benches are necessary?

We ask your questions anonymously so you don’t have to! Submissions are open on the 1st and 15th of the month.

dude why don't we have more public benches throughout towns. I'm fucking disabled if I have to walk the mile back home after work I'm either not gonna make it or I'm gonna end up laying motionless on the floor for the next half hour

A public bench on a scrap of land next to the Asda supermarket in Fleetwood. Litter on the ground next to it indicates that it is sometimes used for the local hobby.

The white bench

[stardustedknuckles]

My acknowledgment and appreciation of sidewalks as a public space vs my extreme annoyance of trying to nap while a group of dudes sit on a sideways telephone pole outside my window and yell sentences primarily comprised of the word "motherfucker" while smoking so much weed that I can smell it with my window shut.

Bower Ponds, Red Deer (No. 2)

The area was inhabited by First Nations including the Blackfoot, Plains Cree and Stoney before the arrival of European fur traders in the late eighteenth century. A First Nations trail ran from the Montana Territory across the Bow River near present-day Calgary and on to Fort Edmonton, later known as the Calgary and Edmonton Trail. The trail crossed the Red Deer River at a wide, stony shallows. The "Old Red Deer Crossing" is 7 kilometres (4.3 mi) upstream from the present-day city.

Cree people called the river Waskasoo Seepee, which means "Elk River." European arrivals sometimes called North American elk "red deer," after the related Eurasian species, and later named the community after the river. The name for the modern city in Plains Cree is a calque of the English name (mihkwâpisimosos, literally "red type of deer"), while the name of the river itself is still wâwâskêsiw-sîpiy or "elk river."

First Nations on the north side of the river entered into Treaty 6 in 1876 and on the south side Treaty 7 in 1877. Farmers and ranchers began to settle on the fertile lands.

A trading post and stopping house were built at the Crossing in 1882. This became Fort Normandeau during the 1885 North-West Rebellion.
