I have a recurring dream. I am making hummus in my kitchen but am out of tahini.
So I jump on my bike and cycle to the nearest Tesco. As I enter the shop the tannoy says that they will be closing in five minutes and thankyou for shopping at Tesco. Increasingly frantically I rush along the aisles looking for the tahini as the tannoy counts down the minutes to the shop closing (and thankyou for shopping at Tesco.) Eventually I find the tahini as the tannoy is counting down 30, 20, 10 seconds to the close. Just as I reach out to grab the jar of tahini the tannoy says "We are now closed. Thankyou for shopping at Tesco." The lights go out, and that's when I sit bolt upright in bed, soaked in sweat.
