Fragments of A Dream

I was living in a terraced house with enormous terracotta statuary groups in the front yard. There was a salmon on the carpet, walking around on its fins. I picked it up and it cloned itself and the clones turned into long-haied goats- or possibly rabbits. Someone was translating a passage of classical Greek to an audience of admirers- and William Hague popped in at the side and said "Actually that phrase means 'Theseus's agent.'" And then did a back flip.
