The Cat By The Riverside (night of 09/01/2019)

The shallow banks of a river. Muddy. A number of pipes jutting out of a stone wall discharging water. Trees. Branches, Tangle. I am passing by - some kind of vehicle, a car, a boat? I look at the muddy embankment by the pipes. It looks cold. I cannot imagine sleeping there.
I am on the bank itself now. A black cat is there. To my horror I stands on the cat's tail. The cat is unhappy, and tries to scratch me. I hide my hand inside the sleeve of my coat. I am worried the cat will no longer want to be friends with me. I try to make friends with the cat again.

This may be connected to the above dream - perhaps set in the same location? - Vague images of a computer screens and muddy river banks. A cold room - brown panelling...
I am at work. My last call of the day comes through. A customer is angry because there has been some damage from one of our vacuum cleaners. I think I talk to both the husband andwife. Neither wants to give me their account details. Some of the text on the screen is highlighted in green squares. This means that something has gone wrong with the computer - I will not be able to use it. Is it  because I have reached the end of my shift. Didn't the same thing happen yesterday? The custoemers are angry. It transpires that the Air-Ram vacuum that has caused the damage is not theirs, but someone else's. They are the ones that have been damaged, but the vacuum is not actually theres. I am puzzled and do not know how to proceed with this.
