    Is there a dream thread? Oh well, here will do.

    Anyone else have dreams about QBN members (oo-er) you've never met?

    Last night I dreamt I went on a long weekend to Berlin with Nairn and his partner, we had become friends but it felt awkward. It went on for hours (or seemingly days) in intense detail.

    So we arrive in Berlin and it transpires Nairn is involved in a new hard to describe airport payment system, basically if you have a ticket, when you land you insert it into a machine and a £100 voucher comes out to spend in shops, cafes and bars in the local vicinity.

    So we land (memories of the outward flight are vague, one of the black spots of the dream) and we go through the usual immigration etc. Then Nairn has to meet his contact about these airport voucher machines, it transpires that he has been offered a job with the company who makes the machines, unfortunately he doesn't get the job but we both insert our tickets into the machine and get our vouchers.

    This is where it gets a little weird. We go for a nice (free) lunch and get a bit pissed. Nairn's partner is only vaguely present, all I remember is very pretty but very short, likely under 5 foot. She isn't that involved in the narrative though.

    So we eat lunch, and get a little refreshed and decide to go sightseeing in Berlin. But instead of Berlin, our locale has morphed into some weird London / Berlin hybrid. The buildings are all mostly London-esque and everything is based around the Thames, it's also borderline Victorian era London. A bit creepy and Jack the Ripper style.

    Anyway it gets a bit vague here again, I know we got lost and walked the streets for a long time trying to find somewhere we were meant to be, to no avail.

    Then the next vivid memory jumps back to the airport. We get on our flight back. Other stuff definitely happened before this but it's gone from my memory which is annoying.

    We land back In the UK and get a taxi home, but not home, instead to a flat I owned 15 years ago in Moseley B'ham. When we all arrive very tired, there is a party going on in the flat. People won't leave, they are very friendly but I don't understand why they are in my flat.

    Then it reaches it's conclusion, I check some draws and find a box full of all my favourite pens. Someone (have no idea who) has done a pooh in the box and I am disgusted, feel sick. I voice my concern to Nairn.

    That's pretty much the end. I wake up and feel like I've actually had a weekend break away it was that vivid and intense.

    Am I having a breakdown?

    • You're not having a breakdown, you're totally fine. But you are focusing WAY too much mental energy on QBNnb
    • possibly, but the dream was generally very enjoyable until the stool episode.fadein11
