Dear Sam,
I hope you are well. I am writing to thank you for
a
wonderful vacation that we had Correct article usage
the
last
weekend at your new house. I enjoyed the barbeques and the football match on your big projector. Unfortunately, I forgot my wallet
at your place. Let me explain to you in detail.
After a long drive from your place on Sunday evening, I decided to have dinner at a nearby restaurant. Since I was tired from the long journey, I took a shower and then
headed to have dinner. I ordered some cheap bites to eat, however
, when I put my hands in the pocket for payment at the counter, I suddenly realized that I left the wallet
on the table where we were watching the football match. The wallet
is important as it contains the only picture of my grandmother. It’s very special to me because it’s the last
memory I captured before she died. It would be great if you could return my wallet
this
week.
Fortunately, my aunt who lives nearby your house is heading towards my place this
week on Wednesday. I would request you to hand over my wallet
to her.
Once again, I want to thank you for the lovely time we spend together and hope we could meet often.
Your friend,
