Party

My friend (who has MS and is confined to a wheelchair) and her sister were trying to find the address of where a party was supposed to be held in a residential area. The street looked very much like that of a typical American suburb, with manicured front lawns and generous green back yards. They seemed to have been given the wrong address. They went up and down the road puzzling over the whereabouts of the gathering, her sister getting really annoyed at the injustice of it.

Mental Patient

I got to know a really sweet man who turned out to be mildly retarded. I became very attached to him. When he went missing, I was distraught. I told my boss about him, and he informed me that this man was a ‘Mental Patient’ and had been taken away. I was so frantic and upset because he was a beautiful person and certainly was not a candidate for a padded cell.

[I was in France at the time. This dream had quite an impact on me, stayed with me all day]

Dead Fish

Australia was a rock 6’ across! Me and a bloke I don’t recognise were walking around ‘Australia’ looking for dead dolphins but they turned out to be various types of fish, which surprised us. They were spread out around the rock, and even though we should have been able to see all around the rock without even moving, we carefully tip-toed around it in search of the unfortunate sea-life.

Big Bird

As I watched from a building, very strong winds were picking up massive rocks and hurling them all over the place. A giant sparrow crashed into the ground beak first, which broke on impact. The bird died.

Kamikaze Aliens

Me and an unknown bloke stole a blue Mazda MX5, and then ran out of petrol just down the road at the entrance to a multi-storey car park. We panicked! When I looked round, there were tall reinforced glass buildings being attacked by miniature spaceships. They were crashing into the glass and bouncing off. A self-important Director-type of chap was very proud that his building was withstanding this attack.

The building next door was still under construction. My youngest daughter started climbing up the side of the structure with lots of other kids on a project or mission of some sort. I followed, and shortly after, we were attacked by the tiny aliens and escaped the building just before it was demolished.

Inside an office building, I was in the ladies loos having to change clothes to disguise myself. I panicked because I hadn’t shaved my legs, so I slapped moisturiser on and shaved away with a razor I just happened to have with me. My outfit was a red ¾ sleeved shirt, black ¾ trousers and black 4” spike heels. I think it worked but I was really stressed about it.

My Grandad was in the dream at some point.

Giant Laser

Buffy, Angel and Spike all featured, but always in the peripheral, never quite making it into the forefront of the goings-on. There was a giant laser cutting tool from somewhere in the sky, slowly and methodically slicing up London Road, straight up the middle of Crane Hill. Cindy and John (friends of my mother-in-law, except Cindy looked like my neighbour instead) were in the path of the gigantic cutting thingy which was on its way to destroying their garden. I helped them to collect basic necessities and make good their escape. My house was the next target, a big one storey stone farmhouse. I hooked together 2 big blue Volvo estates, which looked more like 2 low coaches strung together, and flung everything I could lay my hands on, including various furniture, into the cars ready for my getaway.

Monica/Jet Li

Monica (from Friends) had got a baby. She left it in bed with a bottle of milk and ran from the room laughing and shouting, “The baby is dead – at last I get some peace!”

Jet Li was doing some funky moves in an Oriental-looking garden, some kind of meditation. A man sitting in an ornate tapestry chair inside summoned Jet Li to him and presented the chair to him as a gift to his servant.

Beach & Trees

On a huge beach with sand dunes, I was looking at a house built on the sand, wondering why it didn’t sink. An older version of my youngest daughter was staring at a sunbathing bloke that she fancied.

Then I was in a wood with unnaturally tall trees, looking for something - a friend, I think. It got a bit hazy when I woke up.

Car Park

I was standing in a Tesco car park, but not one that I recognised. I wasn’t shopping but I went into the store anyway for something. When I returned to the car park, it was twilight and there was a man standing near my car. I felt an urgency that I couldn’t explain and started to panic. I tried various car doors, ran in between them in a wide circle around my car trying to get to it without being seen.

Rope Bridge

I was crossing a rope bridge. The wooden planks were new and very evenly spaced, and spanned about 100 metres across a seemingly bottomless void. At the end to which I was heading, was a concrete platform approximately 2m wide, and off that was a door in a sheer rock face that went up so far I couldn’t see the sky. There were air stewardesses waiting at the door, greeting me with big smiles. I was about to take a plane trip...

New York

I was in New York, except it didn’t really look like New York, at least not that I’ve seen. I was crossing a road, using a zebra crossing and I was looking for something, but I can’t remember what it was. One of the Managers from work was there, calling to me from across the road. There were definite sexual undertones, but nothing actually happened.
