..You start having dreams about things going wrong with your car!
Few nights ago I had a dream I had a small crash in the Dax while I was driving it unregistered - poo hit the fan etc.
Last night I woke up devastated because I'd dreamt I'd been showing the car off to mates on my drive. I'd popped a coolant hose without
realising and nuked the engine!
Ah well. At least I'm not in pakistan right now with really problems to keep me up at night..
Dreams are funny things aren't they? A similar thing happened to me after the bottom end of my engine let go.
I have had dreams like that before but not car related.
Takes a while to realise it wasnt real!
sadly i dont ever remember ever having any dreams.(is this normal )
I had a 2 cylinder 2 stroke bike once that was running on 1 cylinder, dog rough on tickover.
In a dream I worked out that coz its a 2 stroke with crankcase primary compression there must an oil seal in the middle of crank and this oil seal
must be split and acting like a one way valve allowing the primary compression of one cylinder into the other but not visa versa.
On the streangth of that dream I stripped the engine down and found my dream was spot on even down to how the seal was split.......... Wierd or
what
Took crank to dealer, who split the crank & replaced the seal. Built it back up and hey presto Fixed

I had a dream I was eating a giant marshmallow the other night.
When I woke up the pillow was missing !!

Here's my take on this one.

the other week , my alarm went off so I got up , and headed for the kitchen , switching the kettle on as soon as I got there...............then the
alarm went off again - and I woke up , wondering why I wasnt in the kitchen , dressed , and waiting for the kettle to boil
It was so real - I was still feeling a bit confused when I got to work - wondering if I was still asleep , and the alarm was gonna go off any second !
