Talking Muses: #4A: Letter to Myself

If you're reading this, you're rummaging through the boot cupboard in search of the thermostatic coupling component.

Well, then. I've a bit of advice for you. You'll ignore it, of course, but there we are. I have to at least try.

1. Do not trust the High Council. Yes, I know. It rather goes without saying, doesn't it? But this time it's especially important.

2. Spend more time with Peri. You'll thank us later.

3. Never lose hope. Not everything is as it seems.

4. Don’t bother seeing the DaVinci Code. The book is better. Leonardo agrees.

5. Nemesis is on the way back. Try not to forget the date this time.

~ The Doctor

p.s. - The component isn't there. It's in the wardrobe, black frock coat, inside left pocket, exactly where we left it.
