Now, usually I think these are boring (other peoples dreams), and I think they can be explained away as corrupted memories of something seen, heard or experienced within a couple of days before the dream.

Not this one though - It was almost a visionary dream, well, portentious anyway.

This is the dream - short version - which I experienced on Saturday night, Sunday morning:
I was at a supermarket with the mrs, we were looking at sandwiches. She picked up a roll (subway type) which was £1.28, I said,  "it's too small get the bigger one it's only £1.74",
She said, "I don't want that one, it has melon in it".
With that, ex-Crimewatch presenter Nick Ross taps me on the shoulder. He was working there. "I'll go and get you a different one" he offered.

Then we waited. No roll, so we went to find him. He was at the bloody checkout serving people.

That's about it - I woke up.

On Sunday evening I went to a pub quiz. One of the questions was, Name the man who presented Crimewatch for 23 years who had the 'catchphrase'
"Don't have nightmares"

So my question is

WTF?

Regarding dreams, whenever I have one where I get my leg over, I get right up to the point, usually of undressing, and then I wake up.  I always wake up just before.  Does anyone else find this?

My son is a psychoanalyst.  His appraisal is as follows:

The roll being too small is a direct indicator of a small penis anxiety. 

The subway and melon references are usually linked to female genitalia and its fear thereof.

Nick Ross ignoring you points to an inferiority complex, particularly of those you perceive as being in authority.

The quiz thing is just a coincidence, don't worry about that at all.

If your son has paid anything to become a psychoanalyst, KL, tell him to ask for his money back.
That appraisal could not have been more wrong.
The coincidence bit is probably accurate though.

What would your reaction to the dream have been if Ross had not come up in the Quiz? If it would have been a lot more muted, then the coincidence, rather than the dream itself, would perhaps be the more important element. We humans have a tendency to ascribe significance to things that are merely striking. I would love the same lottery numbers to come up in two consecutive draws!

that dream was lame - my dreams are mental. i'm waiting for someone to make a dream recorder to make a fortune. the production values are terrific.

Last night I was captain America. I lined up with a hundred super soldiers. pretending to blend in.  Suddenly a soldier turns to face me, He's got stiff blonde hair like max headroom. He starts punching at me but they are intangible punches, they sweep through me. Then he stops and the punches start to be felt. Delayed punches. I start to fight as all the soldiers pile on. Then I'm in a big house, a woman approaches me and says she's the land lady of the house. she shows me up to this room. It's tiny with a narrow window. There's stuff in front of the window and I clear it away. I peak out the window and there is a beautiful coastal town like cornwall hundreds of feet below. All blue and green. I take the room and the landlady says I have to work in the shop below the flat. I go down to the shop and the chef/owner is serving up plates of chocolate eclairs, choux buns. people are loving it and it's a great success. Suddenly a man busts in and screams at the owner he says you stole my shop idea and he's going to sue him. The owner says he'll give the guy a free meal every day if he leaves it. The guy agrees and goes over the road to talk to his father and grandfather. The Grandfather says to his grandson that they must shut down the choux shop and destroy the building so they can build  a store house for their business. I can't remember how it ends? Maybe get part two tomorrow? a lot of my dreams connect up.

your dream seems to involve bread and choices. Maybe you are feeling the pinch. You think your choices are between a bad choice and no choice. Maybe a brexit anxiety dream.

sounds like she has a book.

I find most dreams are about conflicts found in your subconscious which relates to the previous day.

So you bought a coke instead of a Pepsi , you went to the shop for a Pepsi. You asked the assistant where the Pepsi was and he says the supplier never delivered. You get miffed and shake it off. Frustration enters the subconscious mind.

that night - You go to sleep and dream you are in bed with Pepsi and Shirley, you are about to FK em , they look really tasty, boobs gleaming, sweat dripping and moistness is implied.  when George Michael appears and the girls disappear. he gets naked and you wake up in a cold sweat. You get worried you are going gay? but it was just that you did not get your fav' drink.  unresolved crap of the day. 

you didn't want a poke, i mean a coke.
