War

I was in this massive shopping mall with loads and loads of mostly anonymous people. There was a creepy atmosphere and the mall opened out into a wide street with more shops and a small harbour. I went down to a shop at the end with huge windows and met a couple of women there. I was really nervous and we were chatting about jewellery but really it was some kind of code. They could see I was nervous and were trying to calm me down discreetly. Out of the corner of my eye I saw a woman walk in with a black sports bag and I immediately screamed and ran out of the shop. As soon as I was out in the street I knew I'd made a complete tit of myself so I sidled back in sheepishly. Suddenly I knew exactly what was going on; Tyra Banks and her army had taken over the country and occupied Britain, and we were going to create a diversion by setting off a bomb in the shop. I told the women I was pulling out of the plan and went to look around the other shops, knowing that a bomb was about to go off and that I had to act normally.
I went back into the shopping mall part to get as far away from where the bomb would be and there were still loads of people around. At some point the bomb must have gone off so the half of the mall I was in was closed off. We were all quite scared but excited too, and people began looting like in Dawn of the Dead! I looking at loads of cool clothes and other people were swanning about in expensive ball gowns. I asked someone what the time was and they didn't have a clue. We had been there so long by now we couldn't tell if it was day or night. I could hear the army approaching from behind the blockade and we knew they were going to kill us all.

Carnations


I was in Llancarfan (the village I used to live in) curled up by the stream amongst the grass and trees. I was living there like a hermit with Ewan McGregor and I walked into the stream and splashed my face with some water. We went and stood outside my old house which was covered in rows of giant flowers in colours going from light to dark from top to bottom (after some extensive googling I have determined that they were carnations). We climbed the steps into the front garden where my next door neighbour was tidying up and Ewan was suddenly someone else, I think Sarah or Kacie, and I said "look, this is my old house! When I tell you about this dream you'll know what I mean because you've seen it."

Dormitory

It was the 1950s and I was living on the top floor of a house with some girls. It was one big room with a few single beds, like a dormitory, and the ceiling was wooden and slanted with the shape of the roof. The house was somewhere in the country and there was a man (who I didn't see) in charge of us who we were worried would come in and tell us off if we made too much noise. There were 4 boys living elsewhere in the house who looked about 14 years old. I think they were betrothed (haha) to some of the girls.
We were bored and got out a record player. Someone found some red, blue and yellow plastic strips that were about the size of a 30cm ruler. We had a little sewing kit so we sewed the strips together into panels and put them on as corsets. We were getting into a line to dance to the music and when I looked at the girls I could see them really clearly so I tried to memorize what they were wearing. I quickly went over to a table and started writing it down but they were all telling me to hurry up because the music was starting.
The boys came in and said they were going somewhere but they didn't look old enough. Some of the girls were saying "just tell them you're engaged, they'll think you're older".
When the boys left the girls got into bed and went to sleep. I looked out of a window and saw a massive tree and what looked like somebody's foot, so I climbed out and onto the tree. Between some branches near the top was a platform and someone was sitting on it, I can't remember who. I could hear the mysterious man in charge and I knew I'd get bollocked if he saw me in the tree. He came out of the door and he was looking all around for me and I was wishing he wouldn't look up. Then I was really high up floating in the air and laughing because he couldn't see me...

Shaven

1) I was down the Knap with Gee and my brother Leo and we were standing by a low wall waiting for someone. We had a camcorder/video camera of some kind so we were playing around with it. I had what I thought was a really good idea so I told Leo to point the camera at me and start filming. I looked into the camera and said "He had crazy staring eyes" (then my eyes looked to the left, then back at the camera) "and a crazy staring ear!" But in the dream it was incredibly funny and we were pissing ourselves laughing.

2) I was in the kitchen with some anonymous people and there were 2 men in red pants. One of them was really hairy and the other was about a normal level of hairyness. The anonymous people were shaving the hairiest guy and saying "why can't you be more like the less hairy man?"

LSD

Me and Sarah were in the countryside around where I used to live, and there was a long trail of what looked like grey powder snaking across the fields. We realized that it was LSD so we wanted to steal it. We pretended to just innocently go for a walk but we were collecting it on our shoes, and the farmer was coming towards us in his tractor...

Crocodile

I woke up and got out of bed to find a crocodile's head on the floor. I picked it up and the wall in front of me had some film projected onto it. It showed a (quite skinny) elephant in a concrete enclosure with a zoo keeper. The keeper was talking to the camera about the elephant, then was handed a baby from off-camera. He held it out to the elephant who picked it up with his trunk and put it in his mouth. Suddenly a crocodile appeared, so the elephant spat out the baby and bit off the crocodile's head. The film disappeared from the wall and Twigg walked in. I showed him the head and explained about the elephant, then we went into the living room. There were loads of fairy lights and a Christmas tree (but it wasn't Christmas) , and Sarah burst in through the front door shouting "waaaaaaaah!"

Graffiti

There was a huge concrete multi-story car park with an open centre (like the bit Kakiharo falls down in Ichi the Killer) but bigger. On the ground floor there had been an infamous murder there at some point previously and it was replayed to me. I wasn't actually there in the car park; it was like my mind was floating on the ceiling and watching. There were some small parapets scattered about with steps up to them and in one of stood a man. He was stabbed to death there, although I didn't see it happen. When his body was found there was some graffiti symbol (can't remember what) on the wall. Then I was standing in the parapet with my brother Leo and one or two other anonymous people. I was anxious that whoever killed the guy would come back and kill us because we were in the exact spot. Leo and the people were joking about it and started copying the symbol all over the walls, then suddenly they were gone. I was on my own in the car park and I knew the killer was somewhere nearby. For some STUPID reason I climbed up the inside of the open centre towards the roof where the guy was waiting for me. As I reached the top he poked his head through one of the windows from where he was clinging on to the outside. He thought that it was me who copied his symbol on all the walls so he pulled a gun out and shot at me.
