I think the first gentleman's magazine  :-[ that I "read" had a piece in it that translated Jaberwocky as someting completely rude. "Vorpel Sword" being an obvious example. I'll let you work out "brillig" and "slithy toves".

Possibly messed with my psyche.

My favourite book as a child was "Alice in Wonderland".



I have to keep looking at this shot. It is rather distracting

From a purely professional perspective, Alice looks to have taken a bit of a non-injury fall and is clearly needing the assistance of an ambulance. I for one am quite happy to fall on that particular sword and put myself in the line of fire to assist a poor unfortunate member of the public.

However I think I will just spend a few seconds more looking first :-[ :-[ :-[

My primary survey indicates that we need to be mindful of c-spine injury and that the patient should maintain her current pose so that she doesn't disturb the neutral spine alignment she has adopted, just for a few moments longer to allow me to have a proper look examination to enable me to carry out my secondary survey which is more hands on...

My clinical impression is that I need to attend A&E to have my own heart rate and mental wellbeing assessed...
I don't think my wife likes me very much, when I had a heart attack she wrote for an ambulance.

Alice's Adventures on Her Knees is a painting right? 

Definitely photoshopped if not.

It looks 'shopped to me, there's a feature on PS where you can take a regular image and 'block' it as it were, so the colours merge together.  I've done some experimenting with it myself, but on tanks and not fictional young girls...  ;D

Found one of Leon's PS attempts. I think it's a T34/76, but could be wrong.

Maybe it's just me...and it's been a l-o-n-g week, but is no-one else just a *touch* concerned that Alice-On-Her-Knees might just be harbouring a little surprise within that nice underwear...?

I've had a decent look, zooming on the iPad & Macbook and everything...

Call me cautious if you will  ;) ;D
