Twelve

"There was a table set out under a tree in front of the house, and the March Hare and the Hatter were having tea at it: a Dormouse was sitting between them, fast asleep, and the other two were using it as a cushion, resting their elbows on it and talking over its head."

Im readin alice in wonderland at the mo. christ Lewis Carroll is one fuckhead, its all that LSD he took, hell its the reason which makes his books good, likewise its the reason the beatles are good too! i'm still yet to finish it, but im quite enjoying it so far, although i have to pay attention lots. the story spirals in and out of confusion, still not as confusing as reading Trainspotting. I've also to read the sequel which a friend has loaned me, so i have something good to read in the next few weeks,

in terms of drug use, wiki tells us, There has been much speculation that Dodgson used psychoactive drugs, however there is no direct evidence that he ever did. It is true that the most common painkiller of the time — laudanum — was in fact a tincture of opium and could produce a "high" if used in a large enough dose. Most historians would admit Dodgson probably used it from time to time, since it was the standard domestic painkiller of its day and was to be found in numerous patent medicines of the time, but there is no evidence he ever abused it or that its effects had any impact on his work. There is no factual evidence to support a suggestion that he smoked cannabis. However, many people regard Alice's hallucinations in the Wonderland, when surrounded by teas, mushrooms and smoking insects, (though tea and mushrooms were quite common) as references to psychedelic substances.

anyways, heres a Carroll inspired photo:
