Free Running Robin

I was taking part in a race last night in my dream. The starting line was at a town hall, in a town I didn't recognize. The race was a bit hazy, but the finishing line was by the big lake at Tilgate park. My time was 3 minutes 30 which was really good considering I'm not a particularly strong runner.

After the race me and Robin were doing some running by. A tree when I jumped up and started running up higher through the tree. As I came to the other side of the tree the branches started to give way and gently lowered down to the ground to let me continue running.

I looked back to see if Robin could do the same "running through the tree" which I had just performed. It started off well, but the branches were ready to give way too soon and a big branch snapped and he fell out of the tree.

Long and overdue post

I stopped keeping a record of my dreams as the first chance I got to put "pen to paper" was at lunchtime while at work. The iPhone now makes it much easier for me to blog while still in bed or on the train.

Since this is my first post in a while my recollection of my dream is some what very hazy with a lot of holes.

1) I remember wearing a purple jacket with a black collared shirt underneath, most people were wearing similar jackets at the time so there was nothing unusual with his. What was strange though was the fact that I was late for work at the video shop.

2) I was helping Liz with code for a widget for Richard Baxter.

3) Case study on forecasts. All the lines were pointing in the right direction

Big fight breaks out and ends up in Pluto

I was leaving the my house in Tilgate, to go to Furnace Green shop. On the way past Tilgate shop there where two gangs, a gang on each side of the main road (Ashdown Drive). While me and James were walking through the fight broke out, and we got caught in the middle. Some how we managed to break out and get to furnace green.

Some how we managed to end up at Hazelwick School and the fight that started in Tilgate had moved to Three Bridges. Now they where using laser guns that stunned people. Doug was with me this time. We where hidden by boxes outside the school and trying to get in. I stepped out not making sure the coast was clear and Doug told me take cover, then I dived to the ground so I would not get shot. Doug took the bullet.

I pretended to be stunned while the angry mob came over and could see that people where being beamed in to space. I knew this because I could see people being carried by a beam into the sky. While this was happening to me I think I could feel myself floating and it all went dark, this was the space part, then it went cold to say that I landed on ice. The first thing that came to my mind was that I was on a different planet. But could have easily been the ice cave used in Super Man.

That was a strange dream. I must remember that when I'm in tilgate to do a reality check. Hopefully this will trigger the lucid dream.

What a long dream!

The dream that I had last night seemed to last ages, even to the point where I was going to have a nap in the dream.

The dream started off walking around the food court in the county mall Crawley. I went to Burger King where i used to work and said hello to every one that I used to work with. Even sue was there, in fact she was the only person I remember from the dream.
I was looking around the kitchen and the floor gave way and I fell into a hole. I was stuck in a hole that was a tube shape. From what I gathered from the rest of the dream I remain stuck in the hole and the rest of the dream continues in my head while I'm stuck in the hole.

I was standing in a white room, there was just the one door in front of me which I walked through. Entering the door I came to a room which resembled a studio flat (the living room and kitchen where one). There were people asleep on the sofa and the kitchen looked like it needed cleaning (what is it with me and cleaning in my dreams?) While I was doing the washing up and nibbled on a bit of dry meat that was on the side. It could have been some jamon, or chorizo, but i cant remember. All I know was it was dry and salty.

After looking round I realised that this was a big house in Tilgate next to the swings. Looking from the top window you could see the swings that used to play when I was younger. There where kids playing, looking quite muddy and there was a small game of football going on which Rob Halard was reffing.

The window that I was observing this from was a bed room. I had in my mind that i was going to bed soon, but then my alarm woke me up.

When I woke up I thought that I hadn't been to sleep yet but realised that it was all a dream.

Wow I knew I was dreaming

It happened last night when I was staying in Leeds . There was nothing unusual about the day apart from I wasn't sleeping in my own bed.

I was staying in travel lodge and noticed that there where two pictures hung up on the wall and the theme was about dreams. The pictures where of someone asleep and there was some writing that accompanied the picture. I would not be able to tell you what the writing said though.

My room was also next to a railway track, so I was expecting that this may disturb my sleep, but found that i had a really good relaxing sleep. So much so that I could barley remember my dream.

All I remember was that I was at a petrol station and that there was some commotion, I realised that this was a bit strange and said to myself that I was dreaming!!

At that moment I woke up straight away. Doh!!! The dream did not become more vivid as I have read, I just woke up straight after realising this.

The first step has now been reached and all I can do is try to prolong the lucid periods of my dreams.

New Cannon Camera

My boss from work shows off his new camera to me. There was a large red image on his monitor, but I could not make out what the image was.

I think it was a Cannon, or maybe a Philips, but I could not be sure. He took some sweet pics as the colours where vibrant. I said that he should try to make some stop frame animations, and that I used to do it when I was younger with my dads camera. It started off with hand drawn pictures, but then I moved on to plasticine models.

Bizzar dream eh? I think this may have happened because I was chatting to Simon from work about his new camera. This dream was very short, I may have more success with lucidity if I had slept longer that night.

The taxi driver who should have taken my money

I hailed a taxi to give me a lift into town, it took me near the swan pub. I didn't even ask how much the fare would but and just handed over a ten pound note. But he would not take my money. I pushed the note in his direction again and he pushed my hand aside. This confused a me a little so I went to the Kasbar to change the money up in to smaller change.

Then trying to offer him money again for the taxi ride into town he repeatedly refused my money. I then threw the money down at his feet and made a run for the train barrier which was down, hoping he would not catch me and give me my money back. As i got closer to the barrier I was preparing myself to jump over it, but the barrier started to grow taller and taller. I jumped to the barrier and started to climb it to get over to the other side. Eventually I got to the top and jumped down and started to climb the other barrier, the taxi driver rolled under the barrier??? this was pretty strange, and he caught up with me. No sooner that he caught up with me did he started to have a heart attack. A crowd formed and every one was trying to see what was going on, I was trying to help him but it was no good.

Strange dream heh? One day I will reach lucidity. But not today.
