19th November 2001

My dream starts with me feeling depressed. I am in my house as it was about ten years ago however the phone has moved to the cupboard in the lounge. I don't know why I am depressed but having two kinds of rash from a disease isn't helping my mood.
So I decided to call 'Dear Deirdre' the agony aunt from the Sun newspaper. I explained I was depressed and I had a disease that gave two different sorts of rashes. Deirdre listens, offers sympathy but doesn't really give me any advice. This all takes place on a Saturday.

In the next part of the dream, which came about as a smooth transition. I was walking round with two old friends, Liz and Andy, who have probably only met each other once in the real world. We were shopping together in Tescos for some reason I'm not sure about.

The next part of the dream is Thursday. Having bought the Sun newspaper I see that a very paraphrased version of what I told Deirdre over the phone has appeared in the newspaper. However more alarmingly, the anonymous problem page had pictures of me and the people I went to Tescos with on Monday in it.

I wondered how they managed to work out who I am and get pictures of me to print it, and more to the point why, when there were no other pictures on the page.

I was telling my aunt and my mum about me being famous in my aunts hair saloon (a complete invention by my imagination) the room had light green walls and a wooden veneer floor and most of the furniture was by the walls, the room looked really big. Whilst I was doing this I kind of floated and bopped around the room as if there was barely any gravity.

The next day, still slightly fazed by being in the paper I was looking out of the front window at my house. My mum was behind me watching the TV. There was an advert break on and an advert for the Live International football - England vs Afghanistan was being played.

"That'll cause trouble" I said to my mum,
"But it's not like they are going to drive a van to our house and cause trouble is it?" asked my mum. I was rather taken aback by her comment.
"Oh and by the way we are having the house sprayed with cold water in five minutes to clean it." Said my mum.
I considered staying where I was because I was a bit hot and could do with cooling off. Which was when I woke up.
