Last night, another mentalist dream which fully crosses the border of surrealism. I was part of a ‘crew’ performing a set-up stunt in the style of TV’s The Real Hustle. We were in the process of preparing for ‘the con’ which would involve stealing some sort of paper document and placing it in a car belonging to the same person who owns the aforementioned paperwork. Here’s how it went: Set in the backdrop of May Lane shops (see map here) the first part of the dream I can remember was me and someone else carrying a very large roll of paper (about 6 foot long) wrapped in a dark green plastic bag out of one of the shops (I think it was what used to be the hair dressers), down some steps and in to Stars newsagents. It must be noted at this point that none of the shops were actually shops in this dream, they were just emptyish glass fronted buildings… Somebody saw us taking these documents, raised the alarm and a security guard starting chasing us. We made it in to Stars and put the documents in the car (a silver Toyota MR2). Once we got in there though we were trapped.. the door was locked and other people in the shop weren’t impressed either. As this was supposed to be a TV show and the various celebreties who were meant to pop up during the show hadn’t turned up, coupled with us noticing that the film crew weren’t around either we got very worried and panicked. I decided, in agreement with my unknown colleague, that I should go and get help from the cast of Most Haunted as we were sure that Yvette Fielding and Derek Acorah would know how to get us out of this mess (!?). I managed to escape through the front door of the shop (wasn’t it locked?) and this is where it all went a little strange (yes, that first part wasn’t strange). It turns out that this row of shops isn’t actually a row of shops, it’s a row of buildings on the top deck of an enormous submersible ship with climbing ropes and rigging all over the place. I clamber across the ropes to get to a door which takes me down in to the ship. I’m presuming by now that the ship is owned by my employer as I’m seeing many familiar faces from my workplace in the ship. The walls, ceiling and floors are all painted a bright green and I make my way to the front of the ship through many doors, passing lots of people I know. When I get to the front of the ship I see a poster on the wall with a layout of the ship on it and as I turn the corner to my right, there’s a bit of a party going on. Drinks are being handed out (to more people from work) in cocktail glasses but you aren’t allowed to walk any further around the boat because yellow and black tape blocks the way. And then the dream ended…..
