Example Letter
Dear Emily,
I’m writing to invite you to my birthday celebration on Friday, 15 June. It's going to be an all-day affair, so you should be here by eleven o'clock in the morning.
Since it’s my sixteenth birthday, my parents want it to be a very special day, so this is what we’re going to do. First we’re going to take everyone to the stables and hire horses. Then we're going to ride to the Elmington Estate and have a picnic there, when we get back, there will be games and refreshments in the garden, and in the evening there'll be supper and dancing. I just hope the weather is fine!
Let me know if you can come, and tell me your news as well. I'm looking forward to hearing from you.
Lots of love,
Karmen.
