For the month of November I’m looking for a bench with either a message OR an Autumnal theme
(any kind of writing will do, it could be a message, a plaque, a dedication or even a map)
My Spirit will be like a bird soaring in the sky over the sea at the Lizard
If you would like to join in with the Bench photo challenge then please take a look at my Bench Series page. No complicated rules, just a bench and a camera required 🙂
- Create your own post and title it Bench Series: November
- Include a link to this page in your post so others can find it too
- Add the tag ‘bench series’ so everyone can find the benches easily in the WP Reader
- Get your post in by the end of the month, as the new bench theme comes out on the first Sunday in December.
My Picks of the Week:
It seems appropriate that benches with messages in memory of the wars were posted last week: Cee , Sylvia and Ruth have dedications to service-men and women the world over.
On a lighter note Kaz has a message from someone who is very much alive and Anabel has found the smallest departure lounge in the world!
Daily Musings found a pretty carved bench with a difference whilst newcomer Julie, and old-timer, Dawn (I mean that in the nicest way) have benches with quotes. Dawn even manages to get hers with an autumnal feel! I really need to get my memorial bench sorted!
As always there are so many delightful benches to view, I hope you will check out the other links within the comment section.
Got here at last! Been a bit full on and I’ve not been long back from my last walk of the year with my English walking friends. I seem to be accumulating more and more bench shots. Wonder whose fault that is? Shall have to blast you with them next month when ‘anything goes’. 🙂 Lovely benches in sad times, Jude.
Sad times indeed. Finding it hard to be positive at the moment, but we must be.
Here are two more benches which I’d forgotten about: https://anotherday2paradise.wordpress.com/2015/11/16/bench-series-46-in-sherwood-forest/
Oddly, the carved fish remind me of those fish-shaped crackers. But I’d rather sit on your bench than on a handful of crackers. 🙂 Here’s another bench from me:

What a lovely way to remember someone – although I think sitting on the fish might be a little uncomfortable!
Plenty of room next to them though 🙂
True 🙂
What a lovely and unusual memorial inscription…just beautiful…
Here is my entry for this week 😀

for some reason, you are not coming to my email, I tried to find you in my reader, and you weren’t there…I followed you again…to see what’s what. Nice bench!
Ah, the wonderful world of WordPress…
Thanks for looking me up. I guess you like a fishy bench 😉
a coral bench!
https://picturesimperfectblog.wordpress.com/2015/11/22/bench-series-november-2/ As I wrote: the message is not terribly original, but the bench is. It was – surprisingly – quite comfortable but that might have been due to our aching feet after a long hike.
Anything to sit on is welcome after a long hike!
Only too true! 🙂 My last contribution for this month, a bench I saw today in Mainz, Germany. The weather coudn’t have been more autumnal.
