Last month you had a holiday overseas where you stayed with some friends. They have just sent you some photos of your holiday.
Write a letter to an English speaking friend. In your letter:
• thank them for the photos and for the holiday
• explain why you didn't write earlier
• invite them to come and stay with you
Write at least 150 words.
You do NOT need to write any addresses.
Begin your letter as follows:
Dear ............,
Dear guys,
I’v just received the photos of our memorable times of holiday. Incredibly, our lovely moments have been relived once again and for a time I could not stop my tears. In the beginning of the journey I never thought that everything could be excellent, and I confess that I owe all of you for the enjoyable times. Thank you all for creating these moments and also I appreciate you for these brilliant photos.
Unfortunately, after the holiday I was very busy because my dog became sick. I would say that I lost track of the time and everything went to the wrong way. She lost her sight and this issue made my family and I very depressed.
I think that my family and I really need to release our sorrows for a while and it would be very great for us to invite you to spend your valuable times with us. I promise that you will enjoy walking around our farms and watching eye catching scenery of my small town, and if you are chasing peace, I would recommend you to experience our sleepy town.
With love,
Sheyda
