IBM....

Lots of wearing of costumes and doing shows, vivid enough for me to think they were real when I woke up, but only for a few minutes. I was involved in building a massive Computing Centre and News Desk that would try and compete with the 6 o'clock news, except it would air at 7 pm, targeted towards students(!). It all failed, even tho I'd put my heart and soul into it. It was all pulled down. No pictures exist, IBM wanted it erased and thats why I'd forgotten about it.

Big Hairy Monsters

Tonight I was mostly.......Chasing 7ft knuckle dragging monsters with a gun and snake like creatures that wrap barbed tails around your wrist and inject venom.

Big Country..... and why I quit as drummer.

Just been sacked as drummer for Big Country.  Then had to walk home, and got caught in a flash flood. Luckily met up with Paul Wood who let me know the band were saying I just quit and they didn't know why and we're happy about it as they were going on tour in the states. I'm now very wet and cold......

Roller Skates and a beating...

Stuck in a foreign land, this time America. I'm being pursued by people for being the fraud that I am (there's no details of what fraud)..
I'm on roller skates in a massive mall. I can out run them but I'm lost in a maze of ramps and walkways. I have an overwhelming sense of inevitability... That I'll be caught and beaten to death (still no idea of the crime).
I'm looking for a bus to take me  'home' but after searching I realise I'm in a different country and I'll need a passport (for a bus trip?), but that is back where I'm running away from. I'm stuck, pursuers are close and I can't get away.
Im being pursued because I broke a plate owned by the woman I'm living with (completely unknown to me). Her friends can see I'm a waster and have been looking for an excuse to get me for a very long time,

More broken phones and naked people....

A recently completed tall office building collapses and I'm only feet away from it. I then try to call my wife to tell her I'm ok but I can't press the buttons  on the phone as they are so small and recessed I can't get my fingers in. Asked some bloke and his girlfriend to help but he accidentally snaps the pull out antenna (antenna? is this the 90's?) I then have to disassemble the phone to get to the keypad.... All the while the couple are putting their clothes back on (no idea why they became naked)

Big Fat Fingers

Susan..

Horrible nightmares.
Kept having to wake myself up so as not to die, something I imagine Susan had to do often.

Electrocution and broken limbs...

I was in a impromptu play with a bunch of people I didn't know. Apart from Les from Sunderland who died years ago.
It went down very well... I think it was something to do with the costumes I had made, something to do with broken limbs. The showers were open to the dressing room and the electrics were very poor (think 3rd world and bare wires). You had to be in the flow of water and touching the wires for them to work. Then I was taking pictures of a scantily clad woman with a dodgy camera phone..... Nothing makes sense, I just get overwhelming emotions of fear, wrongdoing and running away..... And vividness.

Black Panthers eat my dogs...

At mam & dad's house back up north, there's a black panther on the loose.
It has already eaten Cally (my border collie from the 1980's), Coy (our other dog from that same era) is trying to protect me, but no one else knows (or can see what happening).
I can't call the police as the telephone just splits in two or I can't hit the numbers as they stick. Liz and Emily are out there somewhere and I can't help them.In a mass panic I wake up..... takes a while before I know its a nightmare.

Stuart Adamson

Stuart Adamson is alive, fat and a pub landlord in Huddersfield.
He puts on gigs and rides a Harley.

That 'Rippoed off' feeling

Odd dreams... Gym/swimming centre where all the changing cubicles were 10 inches wide, baths were full or overflowing with clean water.
All showers are open (no doors).
Felt like I was paying a huge amount per month for appalling conditions but was the norm.  Having to walk miles from the bus stop/car park to the centre.....that 'being ripped off' feeling.
