Dear Pete,
a) Thanks for your last letter. b) I'm sorry it's taken me so long to reply but I've been c) _really busy_ moving into my new flat. d) Congratulations on passing your driving test first time. Now all you have to do is save up for that Porsche you've always wanted — and the tax and insurance, e) of course!
f) As you know, I've just started a new job as the manager of the biggest video shop in town. I was a bit nervous on my first day when I had to meet the staff, but, g) in the end everything turned out all right and I think we're going to h) get on very well.
i) Anyway, the main reason I'm writing is to invite you to a party I'm having Saturday week. I do hope you can come. I've got a spare bed so I could j) put you up for the night.
I must stop now or I'll miss the last post. Please k) let me know if you can come so that I can give you all the details of how to get here. l) Best wishes, ...
