My favourite park bench inscription

My favourite park bench inscription

These exist elsewhere too, but nowhere I've seen as many dedications on park benches as in the UK. This is one of my favourites:

"Nina Theresa Jenkinson 4th of May 1959 - 5th May 2017 She took pleasure in annoying the fisherman by feeding the ducks."

It perfectly encompasses the best of British passive-aggressiveness - the bench is near a private fishing-pond inside Crystal Palace Park (which is public). Couldn't do anything about a nice pond being walled off in the middle of the park, but she could sabotage the fishing by getting the ducks all worked up...
