      Well, literally I’d say no. But if you think about it, usually when you dream, most of the time you are not aware that you’re dreaming, therefore you really feel and believe that you are IN that dream…IN that parallel universe where anything is possible… so, metaphorically, yes 🙂

      They might be – I never thought of them like that. I like to think that dreams are our way of working through a problem……………in ways that can be totally left field!

      If they are then in this parallel universe my life is definitely much more awesome/terrifying than it is in this one. Usually dreams are based on what you are thinking about conciously or subconciously before you go to sleep though. That means that last night I was thinking about a giant floating tower in WW2 occupied by daleks before I went to sleep, which is a bit worrying. It is useful though because your brain continues to work on things that you have learnt during the day consolidating learning and creating memories.
