I had quite a bizarre dream last night.
For some reason I had decided to meet my dad for lunch on the Isle of Wight (odd because it is over a hundred miles from where I live and even further for him). Anyway we meet up and go to have lunch together in an apartment building that I’ve never seen before which had huge glass windows.
I forget what happens next but we end up deciding to leave the island and have to wait at the dockside for the ferry to come back to pick us up. In real life I think the ferry is a huge thing which carries cars but in the dream it was tiny and could hold only about ten people in it. So we are waiting there and decide to spend some time at the fairground until the ferryboat returns.
Looking around the fair I spot a game where you have to throw balls to knock small wooden blocks off a shelf. Now the blocks were really small about the size of a matchbox and were quite a distance away so everyone that tried their arm was missing and not winning a prize.
So I decide to give it a go and manage to knock two blocks off the shelf the guy running the game then brings the blocks to me so I can read what prize I’ve won and inscribed on each block is a number which indicates the amount of money I’ve won.
Amazingly it appears I’ve won in total about £30 000 but the bloke doesn’t have that sort of money on him so he needs to leave and will come back later with my money. Sometime later he returns and he doesn’t have it, all he has is about £1500. He offers to make up the difference with a lot of other crap like some cuddly toys and some free turns on the different games at the fair. Now I’m really pissed off and the ferry has just arrived so seeing I’m never going to get the money I’m owed I just leave with my dad and the £1500.
