After his enforced stay at a hostel, Josh is back on the streets again looking for change. "Spare some money, sir?" he asks, but the punter carries on. On a noticeboard in the hostel was a poster telling him that it was World Environment Day, but the celebrations this weekend have been more earthly and nationalistic. The council street cleaners are about, cleaning up after the merry-making, and they keep moving him on. Into their bins go bunting, flags, Union Jack hats, and red white and blue rain capes, mostly carrying the legend ‘Made in China’. Another passer-by passes by, avoiding Josh's stare and his plea. All Josh wants is some change.
