It's not just you, and it costs LUL and the TOCs a fortune to dispose of
them.

In the light of the silly billboards appearing all over the place,
someone should tell the Metro that printing it is littering; leaving
it on the train for someone else to read is recycling. But maybe that
wouldn't help their circulation figures, which depend on maximum
littering.


Quite. Leaving your free paper on a train for someeone else to read is a
public service.
