10th December
Hi John,
How are you? What are you doing this New Year’s Eve? Jean and
I have decided to celebrate a party at home this year, and we hope
you can come.
We’re planning a small party with our old school friends, so
you’ll know all the guests. There’ll be lots to eat and drink. We’ve decided to give the party a Mexican theme, with lots of spicy food.
You’ll probably come by train. Just call us
from the station and I’ll pick you up. As the party will be quite late,
you’ll need to stay the night. Don’t worry.
I really hope you can come. It seems ages since we last
saw. Please let me know as soon as possible.
Lots of love,
Mark
Dear Maria,
I thought you’d never reply to my last letter! Anyway, back to your question. Well, if I were you, I’d choose the museum job. Working in a restaurant would be very tiring. Trust me I’ve done this job, and I left in a
month! It’s true that you talk to lots of people, listen to their discussions, which can sometimes be very interesting, but still you get really tired.
Working in a museum though can be really interesting. You just have to explain to the visitors what is what. You may think that you will have to talk all day, but that’s not true.
I suggest you take the museum job. It’s easier and less tiring. I’m looking forward to get
your reply.
Lots of love,
George
