Welcome to Blunderland

Mi-Amigo — Thu, 18 Apr 2019 09:55:41 GMT

Every day hundreds of guests view the Community and every week dozens of new members join.

Many might wonder "What`s all the mentions of Alice and Blunderland?" so The Dormouse created this mini-site.

HOW IT ALL BEGAN:

Are you sitting comfortably? Then I`ll begin.

Once upon a time - on 27 Feb - members were huddled on Community help band photo on Discussion boards, when @TallTrees suggested the banner could be members using phones, tablets, laptops and after chatting said it could even be animals. Then, all of a sudden, that naughty @Mi-Amigo not only said "like this?" but put up a picture of the Hatter`s Tea Party.

Questions were asked as to who was who. @Mi-Amigo refused to be Alice and said he was the Dormouse. Then others claimed their roles. The party was re-named Alice`s Tea Party and the Three Wise Monkeys were added. And that is how Alice`s Tea Party, like Alice, grew and grew... and became the COMMUNITY OFF-TOPIC GANG.

WHO`S WHO IN THE OFF TOPIC COMMUNITY GANG:

for info on which member is which character - see here

And we have The Naughty Step where those who don`t behave are sent

created by The Cheshire Cat [aka @pgn ] - see here

And Off Topic Room 101

where members of the Off Topic Community Gang can nominate their dislikes - see here

The members say "Hi" in the post below.

So why not come and join us?

We`d love to meet you on the maddest threads on the Community

^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^

Please mind the gap

Hi. I admit to being Alice Monday through Friday with weekends optional. Any other times I'm Al. Seems since I feel through the hole every day is Wednesday. ....

"Welcome to Blunderland", purred the Cheshire Cat, grinning from ear to ear (or perhaps from 'ere to there, he forgets which), "You don't have to be mad to post here, but betimes, it helps...!"

Blunderland has new additions.

Two members have taken the characters of the Unicorn and the Knave of Hearts.

We have 87 chicks, which have all been named.

We have had the first nominations to the Off-Topic Room 101.

The Naughty Step has been cleaned and is back in business.

Please check out the 02 Community Off-Topic Gang thread - the maddest thread on the Community

"That Cheshire Cat is a trouble-maker, Mad Hatter. He blames the Community clock, causes mayhem, and then vanishes" said The Dormouse, who will also be watching to see the Cheshire Cat serves him time on the Naughty Step,

And the Queen of Hearts is watching you all, Mad Hatter and The Dormouse, as well as the Cheshire Cat. You're all troublesome in your own ways, love you though she does. But misbehave and it's The Naughty Step for any and/or all of you

Err the Queen of Hearts? Are you implying that the Queen of Hearts never misbehaves or gets sent to the Naughty Step ?

No The Queen of Hearts is not, nor would she, implying that. But she has not and does not misbehave as much as you three

The Dormouse thinks he does not misbehave as much as the Queen of Hearts says and he has gone off to the Community Off Topic Gang to organise a poll as to who misbehaves the most and who most deserves to be sent to the Naughty Step.

Are you sure? I've been very naughty at times...but maybe you didn't see me if you were curled up in the teapot

"I`ll ask the Mad Hatter and the Queen of Hearts" said the Dormouse, getting out of answering such a complicated question for his brain

Oh dear me, sighed The Queen of Hearts. What can one say, really
