Getting on the tube at Tottenham Court Road just now, I noticed
that one of the little advertisement posters had a small
sticker on it, as is sometimes done by protesters of various
kinds.

Except that this one said something like:

Using prepay on your Oyster? Always remember to touch in
and out by putting the card flat against the reader.

Huh? Who would do this unofficially? Yet why do it officially?


Makes me want to go armed with big stickers reading "St Giles'
Circus" and correct the name of the station once and for all!


I didn't know there was more than one saint called Gile.
