Right, I'm sure loads of u remember it - the HARE! The creepy pictures with the moody kids! The riddles! The treasure!

A mate of mine's just got ahold of it and boy did it send the memories whizzing back. There's something so eerie and gorgeous about the book. Kit Williams, it seems, was a right old hippy, and the fact that it made the whole thing himself.... It's like a grand old folly or something.

Turns out the "treasure hunters" who found the hare were directed to it by Kit's ex-girlfriend!

Bloody WIMMIN!!!

I didn't come ito contact with it until I was in my early 20's. A friend and I were engaged in a seesion of reality bending, via mushrooms, when he showed it to me. By this time the treasure hunt was well over, but I went out and bought a copy for the art alone.

I remember REALLY, REALLY wanting it at the time. But I never got it. Therefore my chances of getting the prize were FUCK ALL.

Which is why I grew up to be the serial ki- ah... the emotionally stunted mess I am now.
