Was the bench the victim of wanton vandalism?

[mickyhoss]

Sincerely hope not but surely it doesn't just break like that?

no, this bit was under a tree branch so had got a bit weak with rot and it looks like someone stood on it and it snapped.

Stood on a bench designed for sitting on, not wanton but stupid vandalism then

Or Youri Tielemans sat on it.

Didn’t something similar happen in the Tale of Squirrel Rudkin, when he leapt onto a bench while twirling an honesty flag, and broke a lump off it.

I believe you’re thinking of the incident when Rupert Bear snagged his yellow prince of wales checks on a raised screw head, and Podgy pig took it out on said bench.

Or Youri Tielemans sat on it.

He even Fatty Soumare, it would have been fire wood if he had.
