Outdoor chess tables - JMcNicoll - 22-04-2021

I notice around the country civic spaces being made or remade with the public encouraged to suggest amenities. In particular, George Square, a space in Kilmarnock and down in Dumfries, that I know of.

As just about the only European state without such things shouldn't we now be pushing for outdoor tables to be included in the plans?

I note articles here and here on the Dutch drive for said tables, which may be a starting point.

Should this be something that the Scottish Chess Association get involved in?
