My funny dream

Tweet

This week the girls are both away, which is a novel experience! It also means I don’t absolutely have to get up at 7 am which is the normal routine on a school day. So yesterday I actually dozed off again for a few minutes and in that time I dreamt that I was in the bath, except that the bath seemed to be in my childhood bedroom at my parents’ house. I stood up in the bath and looked out of the window where I can see the neighbour’s back garden (let’s call him Nigel). And the garden was full of people, many of whom were people I know from my old dive club, and they were all busy carrying out some sort of garden makeover. I got out of the bath and went outside to see what was going on, and how come everyone seemed to be involved except me, and some of my diving friends explained ‘Well, after Nigel had that bad infestation, his house was chloroformed, and then we thought he deserved something nice.’ At that point I thought perhaps I had better get dressed, so I started going back inside but I had to go up a couple of zig-zag flights of stairs, and as I was on the way, a couple of classes from the local (to where we live now, that my girls went to) primary school arrived and I was having to squeeze past all these seven and eight-year-olds in their school uniforms and I was a bit concerned that it wasn’t really appropriate to be naked (up to that point I hadn’t been bothered about it and no-one else seemed to have paid any attention either). That was when I woke up. I know dreams about being naked in public are quite common but I never really dream about that and if I do it doesn’t bother me so I don’t think this can be interpreted in the usual way!
