Dozing in bed this morning with the fog rolling in I was busy dreaming.
The dream was about going to a remote house with some out buildings. I went with a group of people I knew in the dream but don't now. Why we were there I can't say but it could have been to do some work. Anyways, I walked into a room and it was choc-full of big box VHS videos, my idea of treasure! They were piled high on a table and there was also a shelf, on which bagged video sets were stood. I think one was the old TV animation Trap Door. Just as I was totting up how much I would offer for the whole lot the owners walked in and went mad at me for the muddy boot-prints I'd left on the carpet. At that moment one of my group shouted for us all to return to the bus straight away and that was that. The dream ended with me trying to scramble up a steep bank full of flowers to get to the vehicle.
I woke up more or less straight away and I think that's why I can remember it, which is unusual for me. Not sure what it all means but I do like big box VHS videos!
Do you dream about toys and collectables and piles of treasures readers?
I used to dream I had just found some new Giant Robot toyshop, but I always didn't have a lot of money or the place was just about to close, leading to a unpleasant pressure on what should have been a pleasurable experience.
ReplyDeleteAs I've become more financially secure, these dreams have faded away!
Sounds like what happened to Wotan in real life that Looey. Not enough dosh on him in the best space toy shop ever!
DeleteI have a similar recurring dream: I am lost in a toy shop, somewhere in Japan usually, somewhere in the mid-1960s, and I want everything in sight!
DeleteThat made me chuckle Zigg! ha ha
DeleteI'd often dream about stumbling across a newsagent, the sort I associate with seaside towns, full of stacks and stacks of American comics. I'd always wake up before I had the chance to by anything, though. Very sad - on so many levels!
ReplyDeleteI'd give anything to go back Paul and really re-visit the comics stall on Preston outdoor Fish Market where I got my Creepys and Eeries! A lovely dream!
