All about them as the football excursion-tram came aiding to the platform, swirled skinheads, with their brutal crops, their thick, heavy, threatening boots, hoarse and raucous, swapping their tales of violence and conquest.

Reflecting on Alice.
On 4 July 1862 Charles Dodgson of Christ Church, Oxford, took the three young daughters of Dean Liddell for an afternoon's rowing on the Thames.
The story he made up to amuse them was later published as Alice’s Adventures in Wonderland by Lewis Carroll. While children accept the tale as a fairy story, adult interpretations of Lewis Carroll's 'meaning' range from the psychoanalytic to the psychedelic.
On the 150th anniversary of the author's birth, Paul Allen explores some contemporary views of an infinitely various dream-child, Alice, with contributions from RALPH STEADMAN, FRANCIS HUXLEY, COLIN FORD, ANNE CLARK and MORTON COHEN Producer JANE STENNiNG Editor ROSEMARY HART
