Meant to put this on last week. Huge fanfares about our new super duper foot bridge which has just opened. It's taken almost 4 years and cost over £22MILLION. I bet the army could have had one up in a fortnight for about £22k
33 photos show just how 'spectacular' new Castle Street bridge is - Hull Live (hulldailymail.co.uk)
A bridge too far

I'm impressed! My Good Lady couldn't get to Spec Savers for her eye test so we had them do a home visit. He arrived on time carrying three bags and used a tablet on a stand for the eye test numbers, was pleasant, efficent and had the test done in half an hour.

Morning all.
Such a strange (short) dream last night. It was as though I was dreaming that I was dreaming (does that make any sense?)
In my dream it was early morning and was getting light.... so I thought "I must get up". Then I looked at the clock and it was only 0300.......looked at the window and it as dark.
I then really woke and it really was 0300.
So weird.
I rely on Classic to explain that one.
It's a false awakening. Your brain getting you ready for waking up. Either because there's a perception of danger(How many times have you thought/said " Something is* right here", whilst awake, and expecting something to happen.)
Or, it's your brain saying "I want out of here!", due to under stimulation and getting ahead of itself.

As for it being light, two possible. You remember you lost a part of yesterday, your brain found and was trying to insert it into your memory, but it woke you up whilst trying.
Or a more logical explanation

Do you have a need to draw or sculpture a geographical feature since waking?

Strangely....no. no desire to draw or sculpture.
Just a weird feeling that I was dreaming about having a dream......very strange
