Thank you for your reply, sorry I've taken so long to respond to your message, I've been a bit busy.

Your post makes a lot of sense, my phone has broken and I'm waiting for my upgrade so I haven't had access to an alarm for the past month or so. Since then I have been having a lot more dreams that I can remember. I'm having 2 or 3 dreams per night that I can remember and I am going to start a dream journal soon, even if it doesn't help it would be really interesting to look back on.

Since my post I actually realised I was in a dream, unfortunately I woke up instantly :-( I can't remember what happened in the dream or why I realised it was a dream but I remember saying in my head "I'm in a dream", then of course I was disappointed that I was awake seconds after. I'm sure this is progress though and I hope to LD soon.

Thank you for the tutorial links, I'll be sure to check them out and see if I can make even further progress. :-)
