Alice manuscript

From this Wednesday, the British Library is displaying to the public this gorgeous original Alice in Wonderland manuscript, handwritten and illustrated by its author Lewis Carroll. If you can’t make it to the Library, you can view it online using a nifty Silverlight viewer.

It’s supposedly to tie-in with the release of Tim Burton/Disney‘s new Alice film, which frankly I’m worried will be a bit rubbish – nothing will beat the original Disney version!

    From the Here gallery you could have a wander through Montpelier (very colourful arty quarter) to St Werburghs City Farm, stopping for a bite to eat at the farm cafe. There's also a couple of great cafes nearer the gallery – Cafe Kino on Ninetree Hill (almost opposite the gallery) and Zazu's Kitchen on Jamaica Street.

    Found you through the Tea for Joy link to this post: do not fear the Tim Burton film, it's amazing. Beyond amazing in fact. So far beyond, I can barely describe it.
    Lovely blog, by the way!
