Night in the city of Manila and a beautiful tabby, very alert and in excellent condition, sitting on top of the park bins.

This stray has had his rabies jabs and neutering, you can tell as the tip of his left ear is missing, done to easily identify which strays have already been seen by the volunteers and means they should be safe to pet.

 

With his high position on the bins giving him a great view across the park and total lack of fear it reminded me of the old cartoon "Top Cat".

On my way to back to the hotel very late one night whilst in Tokyo last week I spotted an interesting side street and took a detour.

It could be the end of the road in more ways than one. Libraries are in a critical state with the crisis due to a complex mix of long-term financial erosion, rising operational costs, and an identity struggle as they try to evolve from book repositories into essential "third spaces" for community.

Once they were in every High Street but now a vanishingly rare sight in Britain as, like most areas, convenience trumps local produce and personal supplier selection.
