Letter from... No, leave that one to Rose. Couple of data-cubes from the 32nd century, nothing to be done about those. Distress calls, all dealt with. And Rose is asleep. Okay.
Ah, yeah. Fan. From Paris, 21st century, right - I remember you. Hello!
Good to get your letter. Funny how things always seem to filter down somehow, it was UNIT passed this on in the end. They need to cut down on the paperwork, though. Not much use to you if I get it in sixty years' time, is it?
Anyway, to answer your question: I'm not sure it's such a good idea to write about what you saw and put it on the internet. No, not even if you turn it into a story. First off, there are a fair few people out there who take the phrase "cleaning up" too seriously, and second, you don't want thrillseekers piling up. Anyone who goes looking for danger... well, they tend to get more than they bargained for, and you don't want to get caught up in that sort of trouble again. Do you?
If you want to talk about it, there's people who'll believe you. Honest. And they're not all soldiers - you're right, you probably wouldn't get a lot of moral support out of UNIT anyway. Look up a bloke called Mickey Smith in London. Or maybe Sarah Jane Smith (no relation). They'll set you straight.
Take care of yourself, Fan. You'll be okay. Remember: Tout casse, tout lasse, tout passe.
