Events > Happy Mad Hatter Day!

[Beautiful Soup]

..to our American cousins (and anyone else who writes their dates in that particular topsy turvy fashion)

To celebrate, I have decided to wear this



Please join me in donning some mad millinery and post your choice of crazy chapeau here

Happy Mad Hatter day to you too! I made a button/pin that says "Mad Hatter Day!" at the top "10/6" at the bottom and has the pic of Tenniel's Hatter in the center!

Happy Mad Hatter Day! As I live in New Zealand and write the date 6/10 does that mean I still get to celebrate it?

Nope. You have to wait until June tenth.



Only joking Of course you can celebrate too - I'm in the UK (where dates are written sensibly, like in NZ) and I'm celebrating my socks off

Ooh, that's impresive - actually wearing something - I'm only wearing my comedy bonnet virtually, if you take my meaning...

Haha, I wanted to wear a hat too (a real one, although I'm sure you virtually look lovely in your virtual hat ), but then I put my hair in a bun and that really won't work with a bucket hat. Unfortunately, no one noticed it. Maybe I'll post of picture of it later.

I've always wanted a top hat, and a big black umbrella.

Yes, do post it here. Those dull old real world people may not appreciate your efforts, but we do

Your wish is my (virtual) command...





I'm sure you'll look very dashing at any tea parties you may happen to be attending

[3rdpoliceman]

Ooh, thank you. I've never actually attended a tea-party. But I can make excellent hot chocolate!
I am constantly on the lookout for hats and stuff like that. I am sure that a nice top hat will go well with my long green scarf (My scarf is awesome! All my friends think so, though my sister hates it. In fact, she hates everything I wear. Its fun to annoy her!).

[aliceaficionado]

Ack, I forgot!!!!!!


Time is mad at me now! I am doomed to neverending teatime! I've been so happy about going to the Lewis Carroll Society of North America meeting I forgot.

And 3rdpoliceman, I have thrown two tea-parties: A formal one, and a mad one. I will try to post pictures of the mad one later

And my virtual hat:

Great news: I have a top hat now! It is big, it is black, it aggravates my sister and it adds to my overall eccentric appearance.

LOL, how fab! And aggravating your sister is a definite plus

I had a bowler hat (briefly) and was harranged at great length one night by this Irish guy I met (in England) who thought it signified my support for orangemen - which it didn't of course, but I was told off in no uncertain terms for wearing it!

[3rdpoliceman]

I have no idea what orangemen are- are they half man, half orange or something? Or is it something to do with William of Orange? The Annoying Orange? Orange Marmalade? I am confused.
