Getting an MRI (nowt scary). The hospital is on a business estate next to a car showroom. MRI is fine. They put your head in this plastic cage so you can't move and play dance music while the machine goes BZZZZTTT and THRRRM and GDGDGDGD. It sounds like something you might buy on tape from Boomkat. - ThreadSky

A few minutes in the DJ announces that I'm listening to "Bridlington’s favourite radio station." That can't be right. Bridlington is my home town. It is also 200 miles away from where I live now. I thought I'd misheard but he said it several times throughout and I'm 99% certain that's what he said.

I finish up and leave, to discover there is no bus stop going in the opposite direction. The whole village is on some baroque one way system. I walk around in the dark for 40 mins, seeing two other people. Eventually realise the stop I need is 10 mins away and means walking down unlit roads. Cool.

Finally find the bus stop and a nearby Tesco Express, so go in to buy some tomatoes. My friend Stu is bafflingly in there. I say "Hey Stu." Guy turns around and it's not him, but he's *identical* to Stu (who I've known 20+ years) only with a moustache. I've found his Mirror Universe doppelganger.

Anyway, there's no real end to this story. The bus comes and I go home, but also I clearly died in the MRI machine and am a ghost now, rip in peace etc.
