I wrote this poem about my late, lamented Grandpa. I hope you enjoy it. Remember to cherish your grandparents (even if they constantly call you 'baldy' and 'fatso' 😄) #poem #poetry #grandparents #gravy (printed in @theopiatemag )

I think the 60th anniversary episode should randomly cut to a three minute scene of Paul McGann and Daphne Ashbrook in the '96 TARDIS slow dancing to 'I Called Out Your Name (In A Dream)'. No dialogue, no explanation, just PASSION.
