The dream this morning is in an alternate universe, another country.
The first thing that came to mind concerned the EUV saga. It was an example in point of how UK Plc failed centrally to note and then fund the development of a technology which currently underpins the global dominance of companies that can afford to use ASML EUV technology to make their state of the art semiconductor chips. EUV is a globally geopolitically significant technology and has had tens of billions of dollars aimed at it. We had a workable prototype, early doors, that could have gone further. But it would have needed tens or hundreds of millions Sterling to develop. Even if the source never made it as choice, the ancillary side-technologies could have been very profitable. But our EUV source never made it. Petty interpersonal politics {and greed} got in the way. Our “sonic screwdriver” never made the grade.

One of the things about being an old git is that several people who you have met a quarter of a century ago are now cheeses, relatively big cheeses. They have done well for themselves. My part is ancient history. I have not succeeded in that context.
In terms of a secret service dossier. In real life I have tangentially a record because of the employment of family. At a guess that is unlikely to stretch to my own dossier. I might be in someone else’s. But you never know.
In a weird far out reality IF the secret service are monitoring me and I am dreaming about them and publicly publishing those dreams, that might be a new one for them. They might wonder if they have a mole. Being spooks it might tickle curiosity.
There are two moles in the garden down by the pond and another one is encroaching outside the front gate. I may trap him on the land belonging to the commune before he gets under the fence. I am not sure of the legality of this. These are real moles with black furry coats and tails…
Could there be some weird kind of incident that I am not aware of? I am unlikely to ever walk in the same circles or cross the path of big cheeses ever again. It is not a big deal to me. Might it be more of a deal to others?
The dream suggests that “young guns” might consider my lack of four A*s at “A” level, a bit thick. I have met a lot of people who have elevated opinions of themselves in the generation ~ twenty years younger than me. The tendency to blag, gobshite and otherwise show off has gone up. Appearance and reality do not always match.
Not really sure what to make of the dream this end.

It seemed important to people in the dream and not to me. The dreaming symbol “table” suggests a need to solve problems maybe resolve some issues.
I noted that it was not Friday on waking so it cannot be freaky Friday.
It might be weird Wednesday though – innit…like…
