Yes its Monday and we are talking about toiletry habits again
I had taken it as Gospel that if you had a wee in your dreams you'd wet the bed. I have had numerous dreams where I am trying to wee but can't find anywhere to go or keep getting interrupted and then wake up absolutely busting for a slash.
So last night I had a dream that I was gagging for a hose and I was rushing around but, for some inexplicable reason, the toilets in the house (it was a friends house who has a couple of toilets/bathrooms next to each other) had been made into bed rooms. Eventually I sneaked into one of these bed/bath rooms, in which Eastender's Dot Cottom and Jim were asleep (don't ask me why I only catch it these days when flicking over or waiting for something better to start), in separate beds of course, and I managed to have a very quiet tinkle in the toilet in the corner of the room.
When I awoke my first thought was "Uh oh - check the sheets" and they were dry as a bone (waking up and bone always seem to be mixed up somewhere) which lead me to wonder if this is just all nonsense?
I know people who have wet the bed or Phantomed (sleepwalking and weeing somewhere) but it has usuall always been down to booze interfering with people's abilities to either wake or wake up properly, etc.
Sooooo has everyone heard this myth? Has anyne else successfully managed a number 1 in their dream without soaking the duvet? And has anyone actually wet the bed after having such a dream (come on don't be shy)? And why is there not the same issue over having a poo?
And while we are at it: Does dipping someone's hand into a cup of water while they are asleep make them wet themselves? I've done it and it has never worked (I think I ended up pouring the water on them and telling them they'd wet themsevles). Is this cobblers too?
