The Pear Drops

Had a dream last night in which Mike and I were at an indoor market. It was raining outside, so we were killing time. We went to a sweets stall and Mike wanted to buy some pear drops – green sweets that looked like a pea but smaller and a bit lighter. There were two…

Zooey built a bridge, Zooey tore it down

In this dream, I was at an open day on a field with Mike. We were watching a few bands performing live. The last band was a four-piece that sung an R.E.M. song called Kahoutek. Now this is weird, because I love R.E.M. but this song isn’t particularly one of my favourites – I haven’t…

The night of five dreams

Had a series of dreams last night. I kept waking up, making a note of the dream and then going back to sleep for another. In the first dream, I was on holiday abroad. I was staying on a resort that was on a small island off a larger island. At one point I was…

When Ben met Zooey

Had a dream in which I was at a party with my family. Mike and Laura were also there. There was also a special guest at the party… Zooey Deschanel! I was of course very excited at this. At one point she was doing a signing, so I took my ukulele up and asked…

The Smug Designer

Had a dream last night where I was at work. There was another designer there, he was quite smug. We were both tasked with writing a review of a Doctor Who episode called Planet of Fire (a real Peter Davison episode from 1984). This was odd because we were both designers, not writers, but we…

Apologies in the coffee shop

Had a dream last night where I was walking through Sutton with mother. We’d just been somewhere and she was in a mood with me because we didn’t get something to eat there. I said we’d go to get something to eat, but she said we didn’t have much time. I said I knew some…

Dirty Eyes

Had a dream last night where I was talking to my brother, Lee, and his friend, Matt. As we were talking, a girl walked past. Matt pointed out that she had crumbs on her face and ‘dirty eyes.’ Despite this, I was rather fond of her. She walked past three times and waved. I decided…

Like YouTube videos, only better

I had a dream last night in which I went to Mike’s house. It was two days before my birthday – that’s not important to the dream and it’s never mentioned, but still. We wrote a bit of a song and planned to record it. However, when I turned around he had gone missing. I…

The Unacceptable Golf Course

This dream started with me at school telling some teachers about my new job. It then moved onto me at a golf course. It was quite a posh place. Laura was there with a disabled friend in a wheelchair. They asked a man who worked there for help with something and Laura complained that the…

Bring Me Sunshine

Had a dream last night in which a lot happened, but I remember very little of it apart from the ending. Mike and I had gone shopping. It was late and the shopping centre had shut and all the lights were off. We were in one of the shops – I don’t know if we’d…
