Consider $\Bbb Q$ with the usual topology. It has no isolated points, so $\{x\}$ is a closed nowhere dense set for each $x\in\Bbb Q$. $\Bbb Q$ is countable, and $\Bbb Q=\bigcup_{x\in\Bbb Q}\{x\}$, so $\Bbb Q$ is meagre (first category) in $\Bbb Q$. Its complement is empty, which is certainly meagre!
