Outlandish trio

What greater incentive or challenge do young people need? I watch with interest from my flat as youths become more and more daring in their attempts to conquer the summit.
So now our beautiful seafront has a climbing frame which replaced a serviceable and useful shelter, an uncomfortable bench and now the addition of adventure walls.
Many of us consider all these to be totally unfit for purpose.

Why can they not produce something appropriate and practical, instead of forcing us to accept such outlandish and unwanted designs.
