You are planning a two-week vacation, and you need someone to take care of your house while you are away. Write a letter to your neighbour. In your letter, - tell your neighbour that you are going away - ask your neighbour to take care of your house for you, - explain what tasks you would like your neighbour to do.

Dear Mrs Stone, I would like to let you know that I will be away and would appreciate it if you could help to take care of my house while I am not around. I plan to visit my parents and intend to stay there for two weeks. I want to give time to my parents, as well as, to bring them to a medical check-up. During my holidays, could you please help water the plants in my garden? Just once in the evening would be good enough. The water outlet is in the garden, near the main gate.
Secondly
, would you mind helping to keep the newspapers, that are delivered every morning, please? I will put a wooden box near my house doorstep, to put the daily newspapers inside, so that they won't get wet if it rains.
Last
but not least, if anyone comes looking for me, would you kindly let them know that I am away, and ask them to reach my mobile phone? I will be leaving on Friday, and I will give you the key to my house on Friday morning. I am scheduled to be back home on the 30th of November. If you face any problem in doing these chores, please do not hesitate to reach my mobile phone - 5466 7244. Thanks very much in advance, and hope
this
is not too much trouble for you. Yours faithfully, Norah
