OK, the vaguely unpleasant dream I had... There are some moments of extreme detail that confused me, then some moments of vagueness, which confused me even more :)

I was at work, just had a really shitty call. I start on another call and the fire alarm goes off. Assuming that it's just a test, carry on and say "it will stop in a minute" to the guy on the phone, and wait. It doesn't stop. I see people leaving and beg off the phone.

Now I am at the top of the stairs, these aren't the actual stairs we have at work, it's somewhere else, but there's my whole team there - even though I only recognise two faces - and everyone's hanging back. Apparently it's not believed that there's a real fire, and they're all hanging about, hoping that it's just a test. I'm not willing to risk this, neither is Sheryl, and we both make our way downstairs, and meet a raging inferno on the lower floor.

After this I just remember being outside and watching the flames roar, and just like watching the burning of the World Trade Centre, I watched people climbing out the windows and trying to jump to safety, though somehow the building had grown in height from reality. In this part of the dream it was like the tower at Forton services, which just makes me think my head is a really weird place now.

This is a pic of the tower at Forton, for those who don't know :)


I don't remember anything else though I know more happened. As I say, it wasn't a pleasant dream, and I woke up with a horrible sense of dread, but I checked out the window and the T-Mobile building is still intact :)
