TRASH CANS AND CIGARETTES

During my time in London, which is rapidly coming to an end, I feel I have covered a lot of pavement. When walking around London, it is really rare to see a public trash can. I have had to hold my trash in my hands and pockets, because the only other option would be to put the trash on the street.

However, unlike trash cans, there are cigarette butts everywhere. It seems impossible to take five steps without stepping on a cigarette butt. Maybe if the government put out more trash cans on public sidewalks, people might be inclined to put their cigarette butts into one of those nifty ash trays some trash cans have on their lids.

WHERE ARE ALL THE RUBBISH BINS?

As we were making our way through the city of London I was looking around and I couldn't find a trash can to save my life. What I am I suppose to do ... litter?

For a place that has so much traffic from tourists, where are we suppose to put a wrapper from a snack when we are walking through the city?

I don't know, I just notice that while we where out.
