Last night I managed almost a full 12 hours of sleep I was that knackered. I did however wake up several times overnight and noted down the dreams I had each time so I wouldn’t forget. I had about four of them. The first, as it came to me before midnight, has gone into yesterday’s post, the other three will be posted here, though I have no memory of the last one other than that i did have a fourth dream.
So, for No#1 see yesterday’s post
No#2
This one was slightly weird and did in fact probably follow on directly from the previous dream, mostly because it had the same feel and the same colours, but a different location. it was however slightly different – in the dream I was male, and there was also another man with me. We were apparently on a star ship stuck in a bog we were in the front of the saucer section and the crew were all desperately trying to get the ship free. I have absolutely NO idea what wedid, but suddenly the back end of the ship seems to sink fdown and the saucer section tilt up (alarmingly fast). Me and my friend head for the very tip of the saucer section and this seems to correct the tilting, though it does wobble wnd tilt a bit mnore as we move around. things like ‘woah!’ and ‘shit’ may also have been uttered. We discuss the situation – one of us needs to go back but we darent because of the tilting. eventually we manage to push all the furniture in the room (another difference to the previous dream – there is a sofa and a lot of boxes in the room we are in – to the tip of the ship and my friend tentatively heads towards the back of the ship – there is no wobbling or tilting of the floor and it seems that whatever we did has loosened the ship enough that we can get free. then I woke up for the second time and noted down the dream. My typing and spelling in the dark and half asleep is truly abysmal:

That is the exact wording I used to note down this dream. Good thing it is generally enough to jog my memory.
The memory jog for dream No#3 is slightly more coherent if a bit odd sounding.
nanny tsunami
So, in this dream you can pretty much tell what is going to happen – a tsunami is going to hit and that nanny will be involved in it (not the cause of it however)
So, I was in Blackpool with nanny. It was lovely and sunny, and bright (complete contrast to the previous dreams). I have no idea what we were doing, probably we were just going for a day out together. We used to do that and she was jsut as she was before she was diagnosed with Alzheimers. I don’t remember what tipped me off, but suddenly everyone realises that there is a HUGE tsunami coming it (it is like a vertical wall of clear water). I grab a quad bike from somewhere and nanny gets on too. I have seen that there are gaps in the tsunami between which I can see sail and mother boats behind it perfectly happy sailing along as if the ytsunami rose out of the water in front of them. I race the quad bike along the beach to out run the wave and get to a clear spot before it hits (it seems to be coming in very slowly). For some reason I think it will be quicker to get to on the tram ways and road so I dodge the people (there are a LOT of people) and under the pier (which seems to span the entire length of the beach and out to sea at points) of course I end up getting bogged down by masses of trams (that seem to just whizz by) and cars and yet MORE crowds of people. They don’t seem to notice that there is a tsunami rolling in either which I thought was a bit odd. finally I manage to dodge round another tram, back onto the beach and into an area where there is a gap (it is /right/ next to a pier that justs out to sea and I remember thinking it was of dubious safety, buit nanny and I nab a pylon and then we realise there is nothing to lash us to it (because the wave (evewn though we are in an area where there is a gap) will be very powerful and destructive. I look desperately around for rope, string, anything to tie us to the pylon. nanny grabs my key fob (it has a carabiner attachment that I clip to my belt loop on my trousers) and clips me onto the pylon. I see she is going to sacrifice herself for me and I am fierly certain words were spoken, but I don’t remember them. Just before the wave hits I remember grabbing nanny in a big bear hug, hoping that a) the carabiner (and my belt loop) is strong enough to hold us both and that b) I am strong enough to hold onto nanny. Then I woke up again before having dream No#4, which I don’t remember anything about.
