A Time Lord For Change - unused Drabble for 'The Moonbase'

I submitted several pieces for Chinbeard Books' A Time Lord For Change which, for one reason or another ended up not being used. Here's one, as a taster...


The Moonbase: ‘We’ll Always have Coventry.’

Dearest Jane,

I hope this letter finds you well? I know we agreed that this six month placement would give us the space we both needed, but I miss you terribly and I know in my heart that I still love you. It’s awful up here; I’ve a constant headache from the gravitron, Hobson is a mardy old bugger and there’s all these fey European-types everywhere. I don’t know why they don’t allow women up here. Or maybe I do, thinking about it. I wish I was back on Earth with you, in Coventry. I’m sorry.

All my love,

Evans
