Dear Tom, I'
m
so sorry about the demise of your brother and I intend to come to London just to sympathize with his family. I plan to visit
next
week Friday, 24th of February but I'
ll
only be able to stay for just three days, because I have to resume work on Tuesday, the 29th of February. I know we have a lot to talk about and we'
ll
be able to catch up when I arrive. I'
ll
like to know if you'
ll
be able to accommodate me in your apartment throughout my stay. I'
ll
be glad to crash on your sofa. I know you'd like to inform your wife of my coming and I'
m
sure she'
ll
be glad to let me in. Don't worry about my feeding and laundry. I'
m
aware that the cost of living in England is quite high and I'
m
prepared to foot my bills. I'
m
looking forward to hearing from you soonest. Warm regards, Sam.
