Time For Tea ...

It would appear that The Hatter is having a party and we're all invited, but nobody seems to know exactly when or where it's taking place.

It could be here or it could be over there. It might be today or it could be tomorrow, but one thing everyone in Wonderland seems certain of is that it will be soon ... which is strange when nobody can agree on what exactly soon means.

And then, even if we find out when and where the party will be held there are the questions, lots and lots of questions: the ones that have already been asked, but which not everyone heard; the ones you're not supposed to ask; the unanswered ones of which there are many it seems; the ones nobody has quite thought of yet; and of course the ones nobody wants to be the first to ask.

You see, nothing is ever simple when it comes to The 'Mad' Hatter and his tea party. Nothing is ever quite as it seems, just when you think you've got it sussed everything changes and all the crockery is tossed into the air once again along with the invitation list.

And let's not forget his riddles. I mean everyone knows that The Hatter likes his riddles especially when they cannot be answered. Remember him infamously taking poor Alice aside and asking why is a raven like a writing desk ... yes, why indeed?

Of course there was no answer to that particular riddle because it was simply unanswerable and The Hatter knew that even if Alice did not.

Thankfully, this isn't Wonderland so hopefully there will be no more unanswerable riddles when The 'Mad' Hatter's tea party finally does take place.

However, there will as I've already said still be questions and lots of them. Let's just hope that for asking them or perhaps for not being able to answer them we don't all end up losing our heads!
