Seen in Metro newspaper (northern edition, p.19) this morning :
'Royal boxes are rubbish...
Soon after royal wedding watchers left 140 tonnes of litter on the
London's (sic) streets, a team of collectors began sifting through the
mess and turning it into wedding keepsakes. The group from Altitude
London has now filled 20 Perspex boxes with mundane and bizarre
memorabilia. They will be auctioned on ebay, with proceeds going to
the Centrepoint charity'
