Had a dream last night that I was at a place, like a community centre type place, and a young Bob Dylan was playing there with his band. I’d been chatting to him and I think he’d been helping me with the guitar, and I asked him if I could play in his band for that night’s show. He looked over at his band, which had about 8 people and already included two guitarists, but he said yeah, sure.

So I went over and said hello got set up, and the two guitarists were very unhappy with me being there. They started making comments about how cheap my guitar was and stuff. So I was feeling really awkward. And then one of the strings on my guitar broke. And I was just like “Yeah, I’m going” and left.

And then later in the dream, Mike, my mom and I went to a castle type building that had a fun day going on, and there was loads of stuff. Stalls with food and drink, bouncy castles, stalls selling stuff, a mini boat race (the remote control ones you get) and lots of other stuff. Every time we turned a corner I was like “Oh wow, there’s even more here.”

On the way in, I’d bought some pigs trotters for my dog, which came to £3. When we got to the entrance, they were selling raffle tickets for £1 a strip. I asked for two strips and gave her £2, but she got all flustered because it was 2 for £1.90. So she said “We don’t have any change, so I’ll just give you something… actually, instead of paying, have your pigs trotters for free.” Which I realised after was more expensive, but still.

We had a walk around and then I got a taxi, I think to go to a nearby venue or our hotel, but I mistakenly put a place I’d been to in Weston as the destination instead, which was about half an hour away. I realised as we were driving and asked the driver if I could get out but still pay the whole fare. He said yes and I got out and walked back to the fun day.
