Dreaming

I am on the Isle of Man with Tom and Annie. I think we have been having dinner with or visiting friends. I leave Tom behind while I go on to the hotel. I’m really looking forward to staying here.

I go into our room, which is like a whole apartment; lots of browns, bronzes and golds adorn the place. As I look around, I see a twenty-pound note on a side. I know it has been left for the staff as a tip, but I take it anyway as we have no money. I feel a bit uncomfortable with this and wonder if the previous guests haven’t actually vacated yet, but when I spot the bed made, I realise they have gone, and the maid has been in to clean, ready for our stay.

Tom comes back, and I tell him about my find and that I’ve kept the money.
