    Place's or buildings that haunt your dreams.

    For me it is the old Westfield Road college in Bilston. I was only there from September 1970- March 1971 before I was expelled. I went to a course there in 1972 and a Union course in 2002. After that it was demolished and rebuilt. I have spent more time in other places, school, Thompson's, the council yard, but all of the people I have met in my life that I dream about, they are always in this building.
    I never or rarely dream of any other building I spent years in. It's like in my dreams about anything or anyone I am a prisoner in a long gone building.

    Does the building, upon awakening, have you feeling fear or love?

    The people in the dreams in THAT building....are you happy or sad to see them?

    When you go pass where the building use to be...are you filled with dread or longing?

    The building had no real meaning to it for me, and I never think about it when I am awake. I was only in it a short time. Most of the people in my dreams never set foot inside the building in real life. Weird isn't it?

    I dream about my secondary school more than any other place.

    I have dreamt about it a few times, but I am young again and so is everyone else. In the college I and everyone else are the age we are now.
    I used to have a dream that I don't have anymore. It's a hot day, the streets are dusty and sting the eye's. I go into this old pub, down a few steps into the bar, it's lunchtime and only a few people are in. It's cool and quiet inside and I order a cold beer which I drink down in one go. The pub is one I used as a local years ago, although it's not, if you know what I mean.
    Strange things are dreams.
    How do we know that this isn't a dream?

    I have had a dream about travelling on a railway, either from a country station to a main city station or vice versa. These dreams have occurred regularly for years and I can picture the stations in my mind but they do not relate to any place that I know. The trains are of the diesel rail car type, so it’s not something out of my liking for steam trains. It is very strange.

    I always dream about myself and my family as younger people, I’m early 20’s and my dad is in his 40’s.

    I asked someone who specialises in these sorts of things why this is and it was explained to me like this.

    When you’re asleep and no longer in control of your thoughts, your mind escapes back to a time when you had less responsibilities and life was more fun and you had aspirations and dreams of what lay ahead.

    In essence, your mind escapes to a less anxious and stressful time, usually before marriage and kids came along.

    It’s often a shock to wake up and realise I’m 60 and not the person I was in my dream.

    During day times...it has been pricer beyond doubt that if you are presented with a half image ..your mind fills in what's not there based on what you would "normally"see.

    Example.... I cld wrt a prgrph hr nd y mght stll ndrstnd t wtht vwls......

    Can you read it?
