The White Rabbit is pulled from the hat!

As predicted in our tale, the White Rabbit has been pulled from the magician’s hat - in Northgate, Kent to be precise.  In the Garden of England a giant runaway rabbit was spotted in the middle of a busy road in Canterbury in the early hours of Sunday.  Pcs Matt Jackson and Yasmin Mossadegh spotted the animal yet only managed to capture the rabbit when ‘kind hearted and pet-loving’ members of the public came to the officers assistance - with ten pairs of hands required to end the rabbit’s time on the run.  The rabbit - named Tiny by his saviours - was taken to the Barton hospital in Canterbury for collection by the RSPCA.

So we have a majestic white rabbit safely in the hands of the animal rescue and welfare charity established by William Wilberforce, a key member of the Blakesware Set, captured by many hands as our tale also predicted (many hands make for light work).  Another curiosity is that the letters which make up the names JACKSON, MOSSADEGH and TINY include the words MAKE HAY!

Mysteriously, nobody knows where the rabbit came from.  

You can find the White Rabbit reference on page 37 of our novel.

Here’s another White Rabbit from the 1933 film Alice in Wonderland… look how late its getting!
