Happy Bench Monday (HBM)
The beautiful quote on the front of the seat reads :-
"If there comes a day when we can't be together, keep me in your heart. I'll stay there for ever" A.A.Milne
Greenhow was an old mining village that was a major supplier of lead.
Joseph Kipling, the grandfather of Rudyard Kipling was the minister at the Methodist Chapel at Greenhow and Rudyard himself is known to have visited the village.
The church in the village (St Mary's) is reputedly the highest parish church in England still in use, though services are now only fortnightly on Sunday evenings plus major feast times
High Seat, the highest of the hills above Mallerstang and the fourth highest in the Yorkshire Dales National Park.
The top of Lord's Seat is a smooth grassy dome, the summit being marked by the meeting point of ruined fences and a small cairn. The view is extensive, befitting the highest point north of Whinlatter. The Northern Fells are well displayed over Bassenthwaite and there is also a good view of the Helvellyn range. Grasmoor and its supporters restrict the southward panorama, but there is no such obstruction to the north, the Scottish Hills being visible across the Solway Firth.
not bucket seats, so I'm tempted to say HBM.
It's too hot to be outside so my 6 and 8 y.o. grandkids are teaching me about today's popular music. Guess I'm still not too old to appreciate....blondes.
Chairs and Benches
This is yet another new series of photographs this time about Chairs and Benches with a few other seating items thrown in.
They can be Regal, Practical, Ultra Design items, Art Installations, used for Potty Training. They can even be vehicles of Execution. They hold immense power and none at all. From the densest populated cities, to the most remote parts of the world. Usually sturdy; reliable; honest; comfortable; often filled with people. People talking, sleeping, with their phones, eating, climbing to reach other items, feeding birds, making love and every scenario one can think of.
The imagination can run riot over the most important conversations that have taken place on them, what they could tell you if they could, what they would tell you if they wanted too. As usual I hope you enjoy what I have posted and this is the first of many……….
The good thing about a day with constant rain in Strasbourg are the many available seats on the excursion boats on the channels.
There is always something interesting to see from the window seat.

Eventually he made me feel like I was in the front row for this performance after all.
Blue-billed Duck (Oxyura Australis)
Arthur's Seat (Scottish Gaelic: Suidhe Artair, IPA: ['sui.ǝ'arthari]) is an ancient volcano which is the main peak of the group of hills in Edinburgh, Scotland, which form most of Holyrood Park, described by Robert Louis Stevenson as "a hill for magnitude, a mountain in virtue of its bold design".[¹] It is situated just to the east of the city centre, about 1 mile (1.6 km) to the east of Edinburgh Castle. The hill rises above the city to a height of 250.5 m (822 ft), provides excellent panoramic views of the city and beyond, is relatively easy to climb, and is popular for hillwalking. Though it can be climbed from almost any direction, the easiest and simplest ascent is from the east, where a grassy slope rises above Dunsapie Loch. At a spur of the hill, Salisbury Crags has historically been a rock climbing venue with routes of various degrees of difficulty, but due to hazards, rock climbing is now restricted to the South Quarry and a permit is required.
Arthur's Seat is located in Holyrood Park, at the end of the Royal Mile. This large, grass covered hill is the remains of an extinct volcano that erupted 350 million years ago.
Arthur's Seat is the highest point of this extinct volcano. It is 251 metres high and surprisingly rocky and wild for a hill in the centre of a major city..
Although the origin of the name is uncertain, some claim that there is a connection between Edinburgh and King Arthur. Arthur's Seat may have been the location of legendary Camelot.
