In the silence of your room, in the darkness of your dreams.

Gah. I fainted on the train this morning. That was embarrassing. I could feel it coming on - and kinda knew it was going to happen but the train wasn't moving and there was no space. then the dark started coming in from the sides and I was suddenly wondering why I had my face on an armrest as it wasn't very comfortable. Noises filtered back in and I could hear the other passengers panicing about what to do with me. I let them know I was alive and eventually got up and sat in someone's seat. mad. not done that in years. used to faint a lot when I was a teenager - especially when we had heavy robes in the church choir - it was such a horribly familiar sensation when it started.

Had a hot chocolate and a sit down in Leeds station till I felt a little more human.

Amusingly everyone in the office is suitably freaked out and treating me like I might actually drop dead at some point.

Aha - I see my choice of final track last night worked its magic then? :-)

Eeep, fainting. Scary. Don't think you're a goat, I'm sure I'd have noticed one of those in the club before now. Though with all the sheep, perhaps not...

You could use the fainting on the train to advantage - get a seat every day! Wish I'd thought of that the time Arriva Trains Northern (remember them?) turned out a single unit (dogbox / Class 153) for the 0720 Meadowhall - Leeds one day (booked a 2 car 156). Stood all the way, should have fainted and claimed a pew.

Mum only ever fainted once but always remembered it, described one minute sitting in a hotel lounge on a bar-stool, reading, next minute being flat on the floor surrounded by anxious staff and no-idea what happened in between.
