Hello John, It's been so long since we've met and

finally

it's time to see you at my place. I'm very excited to see you in Ontario after

such

a long period

however

I'm afraid, I won't make it to the airport to pick you up and I'm extremely sorry about that.

First

of all, I am pleased to inform you that I've been promoted to senior manager post

last

week and

as a result

, I need to be at my work for one important meeting with one international client. I know you will understand not only my situation but

also

the significance of my new job. In spite of the meeting, I have prepared one plan for you. I can book a cab for you from the arrival point to my home which I think will be much more comfortable as cab facilities in my town are very reliable.

Furthermore

, We can have dinner together at Lord's restaurant at night with our old friends in the town. Please drop me a line if you're all right with

this

arrangement. Looking forward to seeing you soon mate! Best Regards, William
