I am upstairs in my bedroom, but it is not my current house. I'm pretty sure my mum is with me and we are looking out of the window.

In the distance we see a red kite swoop down at something, but then it flies back off out of site. We are talking about the red kite when all of a sudden it appears again.

This time a bird is flying past the window, less than a metre away from it, when all of a sudden the kite swoops down and grabs it in its claws. It then pecks at the bird and starts to eat it. I'm pretty sure it was hovering outside the window for a while when it was doing doing this, although I realise that's probably impossible.

Me and Mum look at each other and are both excited to have seen a kite taking another bird from so close.

There's an extension underneath the window, and the next thing we see is a cat walking along the extension towards the window. There's something wrong with the cat though, and it looks sick. It has clumps of fir missing and it's face is all messed up and weeping with puss. The cat walks into the window a couple of times and leaves loose hairs and puss all over the window before staggering off.

The next thing I remember is it being a while later and I'm walking somewhere. I walk over a bridge and suddenly I see Lauryn's dad walking in the opposite direction, and he sees me and comes over to say hello. We talk for a while and I tell him about the cat at the window, and ask his advice about how I can persuade the cat not to come near my window. He basically tells me the easiest way would be to shoot it with an air rifle, but that it might kill the cat so I might not want to do that.

I ask him how Lauryn is and he says that she's in some kind of trouble and that she needs me, and that I should go and find her. He never says exactly what's wrong but I get the feeling it is something to do with her living situation, more like she's not happy rather than being in any kind of danger.

A while later I find Lauryn in the street. She's wearing a fancy dress and looks stunning. I talk to her for a while and she gives me an awkward hug. She tells me that she's going to a party and that it's good to see me, and says we should meet up again and talk.

I dreamt that I was back in Slough, visiting my mum. For some reason I was out somewhere with my ex-girlfriend Lauryn's family.

I don't remember much about most of the day, for example I can't remember where we were, but I'm pretty sure we were doing something and it involved having a few drinks.

Lauryn's parents took me back to her house, and when I got in her parents had to go somewhere and I was alone with her little sister, Jade. She was exactly the same as she used to be and was still only 12 years old.

I asked her what she thought of the new house. I told her that I'd only been round a couple of times after they moved, and I thought it was better than their old house, especially the kitchen. She told me she didn't remember the old kitchen and I described it to her, but the kitchen that I described sounded suspiciously like the kitchen in my first house!

The whole thing about them moving was something that was made up in my dream.

A little while later Lauryn's dad gets back home, followed shortly afterwards by her mum. Her dad is drinking a lot. I think he was drinking beer at first, although I don't remember clearly, but I definitely remember him drinking vodka out of a bottle towards the end of the dream. The bottle was unlike any brand of vodka I've ever seen though: it was made out of dark brown glass and had a hexagonal cross-section and looked kind of like an antique.

We chatted for a while in the front room, and I carried on drinking too. I asked Lauryn's dad the same question I asked Jade: "What do you think of the new house?"

He commented on the fact that it wasn't new any more and I asked how long they'd lived there. He told me "fifteen years," and we talked about how it must have been nearly fifteen years ago that I was last there.

The final thing I remember talking about was money. He was telling me that he lends money to people and makes interest on it as some kind of investment. This conversation slowly evolved into talking about the future and what they would like to do, and Lauryn's mum said "I'd really like to get rid of one of the cars and be a single car family."

I agreed with her that it would be better (and cheaper) to have a single car, but then an argument broke out between them, with Lauryn's dad arguing about how ridiculous it would be to share a car.

A while later I told them I was going to call a taxi so that I could go back to my mum's house. Lauryn's dad looked at me and said, "Do you want me to drive you half way, to Sainsbury's?" but I started laughing and told him I didn't. It was obvious that I didn't accept his lift because he was drinking vodka straight out of a bottle.

Throughout this whole dream, Lauryn was not in it once (that I remember). I only dreamt about her house and her family.
