So many thanks to all for signing this, and I see we managed to get a mention in the Gloucester Citizen. I think, like all who signed, that there are no issues with having to remove the old one as it was unstable and dangerous. But it has become a Forest icon, has created many fond memories, and does bring tourism to the area. As a huge chair it was simple, but memorable and it would be a shame to replace it with something modern arty farty that doesn't appeal to the masses. It was its size and simplicity which made it popular, art for the masses and not the chosen few.
To this, I would ask the people responsible, and the Forestry Commission, to at least have some sort of vote or public referendum on what will replace it.
In the meantime, share share share and tell everyone in the forest to sign this. Its an opportunity to have a voice with its replacement rather than complain when something else takes its place....
