Paper is paper (even when coloured)- mine will get recycled (folded neatly for reuse next year  )

Actually, as someone who works where it is made, there are actually 2 different types of "paper"
1 plain good old "paper" printed any colour you like !!!
2 laminated "film onto paper" gives a shiny thicker paper and can be coloured, or metallic or holographic
How do you know which ????
tear em !!! - plain paper rips easily as normal whereas its hard to rip the film laminated stuff, as you will be trying to rip a plastic film
So in reality - the laminated should be put in the non-recyclable bin as it is a plastic, but not a recyclable one
