Replies: 483 HBC have taken away the benches from outside the market Views: 11,098 Posted By Wynonie Harris Re: HBC have taken away the benches from outside the market It's not a question of feeling unsafe, it's more about the town centre's appeal being tainted by boozed up, foulmouthed scum hanging around. As for seating, well, there were some seats in front of...

Replies: 483 HBC have taken away the benches from outside the market Views: 11,098 Posted By Wynonie Harris Re: HBC have taken away the benches from outside the market I didn't say it was a "progressive" town (whatever one of those is).

Replies: 483 HBC have taken away the benches from outside the market Views: 11,098 Posted By Wynonie Harris Re: HBC have taken away the benches from outside the market This isn't a national thing, though.
