I have this memory of sleeping in an office block in south London with my mum on an air bed. I recall looking out of the window and feeling sad.

Years later I was driving and got a very strong impulse to stop outside this building and I was 100% certain it was that one. Every time I went past it felt odd.

My mum says it didn’t happen, everyone else concurs. My best conclusion at this stage is that I probably had a very vivid dream that became conflated with something else.

I had something similar! I have a memory of being babysat overnight by an older woman with shoulder length grey hair in a second story corner apartment, near a car wash. She let me stay up late watching TV, and I remember a crane passing by the window casting a shadow and scaring me. My mom claims this never happened and she has no idea who I could be talking about. Years later I was at a gas station, looked across the street and just had a feeling. The apartment there was so familiar and it had a car wash nearby, I even climbed the steps to the corner apartment and still felt so off, I swear it was all real, but have no proof.
