8^th February 2001

The dream begins in a slightly modified version of London Liverpool Street Station. I, along with Rob and Sarah were getting off a central line underground train (which I never actually see in the dream, I just know) and getting into a lift. The lift took us from the underground station level up past the overground train level to the higher retail area.

On the way out of the lift someone was asking for directions to the central line and I directed them back the way I had just come. I went into a room that seemed normal enough at the time but was upon reflection a cross between a lecture hall and a bar. The seats were all in rows and had tables in front of them, like lecture halls at university or like an American dinner show. The seats were a light tan in colour.

At this point Rob and Sarah left me to my own devices and I sat on my own at a table in the middle of the quite dark bar that had plants around the edge of the bar. After being on my own and fidgeting for a while I notice that I am able to burn my shadow onto the seats if I get behind enough light and I want to.

It's at this point a person at the front of the bar talks to me by name, loud enough for the rest of the bar to hear. It is obvious that this is a trick I have done in this bar more than once and he compliments me on a good shadow whilst I am trying to get enough light to perform the trick again.

The man then continues to do a stand up show. Something that I have seen before because I know all the jokes and how they are delivered but laugh at them because they are really funny and really expertly delivered.

It's about this time that Rob and Sarah come back and there is what looks like indoor fireworks launched into the room, but when they land they are trails of glitter. Each 'firework' was an individual colour, either light blue, light green, red or yellow. We decide to head off at this point and the dream ends.
