Sleep 1

00:41 to 05:00

(4:19 hours)

Last night we went to bed just after midnight but ended up chatting for about half an hour before going to sleep. When we did settle down I fell asleep straight away.

I woke up just after 3:00am from a dream and went back to sleep straight away, and slept until 5:00am when my alarm woke me up from another dream.

Staying with Estefanía

I dreamt about going to stay overnight with Estefanía, one of my (female) Spanish friends. In my dream Yu Lee was not happy about this!

Roller Coasters and Picnic Tables

I was trying to find a video on YouTube about a roller coaster, but ended up watching videos about people that put wheels on a picnic table and rode it down a steep hill.

Sleep 2

I didn't sleep at all

Sleep 3

12:10 to 12:20

(0:10 hours)

(see next sleep)

Sleep 4

12:20 to 12:43

(0:23 hours)

I didn't sleep at all

When I woke up this morning I really felt like I wanted to go back to bed, but by the time nap time came around I wasn't quite as tired.

It took me about 15 minutes to fall asleep, but then as soon as I'd drifted off an ambulance (or police car) drove past the house with its sirens on and woke me up. As usual, if I get woken up in the first 10 minutes it's unlikely I'll get back to sleep.

After another half hour or so I gave up and got up.

Sleep 5

23:22 to 06:00

(6:38 hours)

Last night we had some friends over for a barbecue, and we had a pork shoulder, rainbow trout, tiger prawns and barbecued vegetables. The evening went really well but by the end I was tired, probably because I didn't really sleep at nap time.

I fell asleep very quickly and woke up to my alarm at 5:00am as usual. After turning it off I decided I deserved another hour and set my alarm for 6:00am and went back to bed, falling asleep in seconds.

When my alarm went off the second time I was dreaming. I still felt a bit tired when I got up.

Mouldy WorldPay

Tags: Adam Rowland

I was dreaming about working at WorldPay, and we were in some kind of temporary building, like a cross between an office block and a porter cabin. There was a weird mould problem, with mould growing on the walls and the head of department was worried it was going to spread.

He called the people in charge of the building and they were going to come down, but he said it was a waste of time because they were near Oxford, and after driving all this way wouldn't be able to do anything anyway.
