    There’s literally food in restaurants in London and if you eat it a dude rocks up and informs you it’s like £15 to eat it.

    I’m not sure what you expect here. A charitable or government service to provide you with deck chairs for free?

      Right? Like someone is going to put a chair or bench in a public space like a park. Ha! Call it a “park bench” or something… and let people sit on it for free?? Ludicrous! It’ll never happen! /s

      That’ll be £1.00 for reading this response. Please advise where to send the invoice.

      I’m my local park there are hammocks that the local government puts up each year.

      Benches, hammocks, flowers, swings and a free open air gym is provided as part of the tax we pay to the city

      I know that you are just a rightoid moron but I just want to make clear that having nice parks that people want to spend time in is not a new and weird concept.

        No hammocks here but even in the small parks they put in one device to do a variety of excersises and in the larger ones there is like a circuit of various things. They are all static type things to help with calisthenics but are pretty neat.

      Free outdoor seating is extremely common though, it’s not that far fetched it could apply to deck chairs too

      15? That’s it! Where is this good deal?

      The only reasonable food while out and about was supermarket meal deals when I went to visit a few years back.
