I am walking in a housing estate looking for a particular house. As I walk I am accompanied by three dogs. I am unsure of them at first however they appear to be friendly. I look up and I can see two black clouds. Suddenly I am in a car flying through one of the black clouds.

I am in a nightclub or social club with B. I am waiting in a queue to pay for into the cloakroom. There is a girl behind me trying to push in front of me which begins to annoy me. I can see B at the front paying the attendant. I therefore skip the queue and go straight to the attendant. I say: “can I pay for ticket 477.” The attendant tells me that the ticket has already been paid for by B. I walk away. I notice a doll lying on the floor as I go to pick it up it turns into a piece of toast.

A little later I find myself near Beath High School on Stenhouse Street. I can see my sister cycling to school in an attempt to keep fit. I wander into the school grounds and there seems to be a charity event going on in the car park. A big crowd has gathered and many people seem to be in fancy dress. There are people washing cars. I realise I don’t really have any money on me. I walk into the school and into a classroom. It is a small class and I seem to be distracted by the writing I find in my notebook which is unrelated to the subject of the class. I quickly realise that I am now behind as I haven’t been paying attention to the teacher. I ask the person next to me if he is finished his work. He is older than me and probably in his 40′s with long blonde hair. He says: yes i’ve finished. Since he is finished he is just wasting time until the class ends. I realise I have to do some work tonight in order to catch up. I empty my bag onto the table and notice that I have hidden some credit cards inside a book.

I am now in the public park in Cowdenbeath. I watch P cycle up the hill at the back of my parents house. I try to follow him up the hill on foot but it is too difficult. The ground is muddy and the hill is just too steep. I stop and seem to fall forward.

I am now sitting on a sculpture which is square and made of wood. I can see B and he throws a pair of underpants onto a plank of wood.

A little later I am involved in a game or a magic show. I think R is also involved in the show. We are taught a trick where we flick a stone with our back turned to the audience and knock another stone of a perch behind us. R manages to complete the trick first time. I am successful after three attempts. I try the trick for a fourth time but there are too many Dominican children in the way. I tell them to move out the way. I can see the stone that I am suppose to hit it is now balancing on a stool about 50 yards behind me. I flick the stone anyway and I manage to knock the other stone of the stool. However, it ricochets and hits a large Dominican man on the knee. I run over to him to find out if he is okay. He seems uninjured and happy that I managed to knock the stone off the stool.

I am now in a large room trying to sleep but I know I have to get up soon. I think B is in a bed next to me. There is a couple in a bed further down the room. It is now 5am and someone has put on the light. I shout over to him: look it is 5am in the morning can you put the light out? I cant sleep with the light on. The light goes out but just as I settle back down to sleep two girls enter the room and tell me they are here to collect me and take me to work. I seem to be a miner or have a similar job. I get angry and start shouting at the girls as I do not want to get up. However, I drag myself out of bed and go in the shower. However, it becomes awkward as I fell vulnerable as the shower curtain isn’t covering the whole shower and keeps moving. I look down and I seem to be showering with my clothes on. Suddenly the lights go out and some security guards come into the shower to see if I am okay. I tell them I am fine.

Someone from work passes me pushing a buggy with a small child inside. I keep walking and notice that I am now on Easter Road. I walk along Albion Road and down a back alley. B is with me and we kick a ball and it rebounds of a wall. I hear someone shout: did you hit my car! I see a white car but the ball did not hit it however I realise we are now in danger. A man is appears who appears to be a gypsy. I tell B to start running. We seem to be in countryside so it is difficult to find somewhere to hide. We stop running and hide behind some rocks. I can hear the gypsy in the distance on a motorbike. There seems to be a girl on the back of the bike. The bike stops close to us. B says something which gives us away. The man and woman grab B and take him into a nearby house where they experiment on him or rape him. I stay hidden behind the rocks and I am joined by a few others. I seem to now be at work but we are working on top of a hill. At first I am acting in a TV programme which is being filmed. All I have to do is laugh and walk off the set which I seem to do quite well.

My grandmother and her friend have now appeared. We rearrange the chairs and tables and we appear to be having a business meeting. I seem to be at the bottom of the table on my own. Someone near the top signals that I should be at the other end of the table in the managers seat.  I move seats. However, the girl who was sitting in the seat comes back. She says she is the acting manager. I tell her I was chosen. She says I was only chosen because of where I was sitting but she reluctantly agrees with me and walks off. I start to log work on the computer which seems to be an old work process from about 12 years ago.

We seem to be back on top of the hill in the middle of nowhere. We are leaning on cars. I look at a clock suspended in mid-air and it says 3.10pm. I suggest to everyone we need to get back. I start to walk back and ST is there on the phone. I wait for him and we awkwardly start up a conversation while we walk.
Someone says to me: the new girl seems to be obsessed by star wars. I hear her say the word ‘droid’ in the distance. I look out the window and I seem to be in Australia. There is a massive supermarket which is called Harold’s co-op and seems to be named after Harold Bishop. Someone walks over to our table and asks if we want a crocodile. We look confused but say yes. It will be delivered the next day.

As I stand outside the house I realise that it is now late at night. I open the front door of the house and walk in. The card is still crying. The card’s family hear its cries and run down the stairs. I hand over the card and they are reunited. 

I think to myself that the house looks familiar. I end up getting my photo taken with the family as they appear to be grateful that their child has been returned to them. I walk out the house. I did not notice at first but now realise that R has been with me all this time. Up until now I have only been aware of her presence but now I actually see her in the distance. She is running to catch up with me.   

I am now running in a hallway back and forth touching the door then the wall. I stop and look at the clock and it is around 9 o’clock. I have just started running and I must not stop until 5 O’clock as I am in training or this may be my job. I am joined briefly by B. I can see him jogging beside me. I tell him that he has to keep this up until 5. He does not seem keen on this idea and stops. I sit down with him and he asks me about the film “He’s just not that into you.” He is going to see it and wonders if it will be any good. I tell him I would give it 2 out of 5 as it is a good storyline but poorly executed. R agrees however she would give it a higher mark. I start running again but stop at the front door. I open the door and there is a strange pac man screen in front of me. It may be an evil presence. I watch the characters move and I suddenly wake up in the dream in my bed at my old house in Natal Place. My sister enters my room and hands me a sock.

I am now with H and hear someone say: Let’s go to the festival as it isn’t cancelled. We know this as Mk and his mother were in town and noticed it was just a few shops that had closed. I walk out to go to the festival but I seem to be walking with different people. Someone drops their coat on the ground and I pick it up and carry it for him. I realise that this is something I wouldn’t normally do but do it nevertheless. I seem to have acknowledged that this person is leading us. We walk into a pub. In the pub we walk down some stairs. As I reach the bottom of the stairs I go over to the corner and urinate in a urinal as it appears to be a male toilet.

I am now at a computer station outside and I appear to be at work. There are a few of us working. We seem to be working late. The general public are walking about around us. A child stops beside me and picks up some money that was lying on the grass. This money belonged to us. I look over and I can see the child’s parents. They may be Indian. The woman says to me aggressively: What are you looking at? The woman walks away with the man and child although I realise that she will likely return.

A little later the woman returns. It is now 1am. Our manager, who I do not recognise, chases the woman into a shop and punches her hard on the face. The scene is quite outrageous and I did not expect him to punch her. However, I notice that the woman runs away smiling and laughing like it was all staged.

I walk into the shop which appears to be a butchers shop. I start turning a handle and blood and meat starts to squish out of a tube. This repulses me and I say: I hate meat I want to be a vegetarian again.

I am now walking down a street and I realise I have to catch a plane with D’s parents. The plane however has been delayed a few hours. I think to myself I must phone D’s parents but either decide against it or cannot build up the courage to do so.

I watch as someone stops their car at a gate. As the open the door of their car I wake up.
