WHAT'S NEW ( IN JAPAN) PUSSYCAT?

 One of  Little  Darwin's  roving reporters , a cat lover, is once more  tripping about  Japan , a  country he much admires , sending  back  arty  and   odd  photographs  of  temples ,  graves,   mountains  and   city  advertising and architecture . Down a  dark  alley   he  snapped what  we at  first   thought  (groan)  were  cat   figures, which  on  closer  inspection  could  be  rabbits , even include a  kangaroo !!! 
 No  caption to explain what is  going on  in this  weird  Nipponese  burrow .  Is that a counterfeit  thousand yen  bill  hanging  out  to dry ? That could not possibly be an ATM   on the wall , could it ?  Our traveller  had better  not show the  bunnies  to his cats when he gets back to Melbourne  as  they  will  react, hiss, go off their vegan  tucker . No sooner had we posted this story than  we received another  purr-plexing  photographic  series  from  our  man in  Japan .
 
THE  CASE  OF  THE  HAUNTED  HOTEL
A man of few  words, what is  it they say about a cat  stealing your  tongue ?, our correspondent  provided  the  briefest  of  email   information . Seems he was  exploring somewhere out of  Tokyo when his attention was  drawn  to the above  derelict , spooky  building in a commanding position ,  said to  be an abandoned hotel . Poking about inside,  he found  a chaotic scene ,  with smashed office  equipment , the  remains  of  what   looked   like  a  communal bath .
 
 
In what  appeared to be  a boiler  room , many  pipes visible, slippers were   neatly  lined   up . Could  make  an  ideal  location  for   a horror  movie called Psycho .
