Hi - I went a-wandering again 
Michael - it was good to catch up. I was meaning a bit of both. Keeping my options open again, haha!
Dymitr:
I thought it might be interesting to find an equivalence for the spots on the floor or to exclude the possibility of such.
I’m interested to know if you tried this and what you discovered if you did… I haven’t yet checked out the post you mention, which I will do now…
I am curious what was the argument, the reasoning of the friend of yours who suggested that you should have an intention
Haha, I didn’t [consciously] ask, but definitely assimilated the suggestion and it seemed like a reasonable pointer. Which it was. I can sometime be either very much in the conscious-mind or very much in the unconscious-mind. I get a sense that my friend’s intention was to help me align the two. A little conscious intention and a lot of unconscious creativity. This has been interestingly re-inforced this weekend, having spent 4 days at Stephen Gilligan’s ‘generative trance’ workshop. It’s probably the biggest take-away for me.
As a further update to discoveries…
Since conducting the earlier experiments there have been occasions when I have noticed a ‘choice point’. Wherein, time ceases momentarily (I realise the irony in using a time-bound word as the descriptor here, hehe). Or does it slows down?? Nope I think it ceases for an instant. A brief moment where everything and nothing is. Oh Jees, I’ve turned into a hippy… 
So, thank you to everyone on this thread (and others) for contributing to these experiences.
