Firstly

, I have just started a new teaching job and I have been working around the clock. It has been intense. I do not mean to complain, but I have been enjoying it immensely and the school I am working at is actually our old high school, which has been a lot of fun. Do you remember Mrs Brown? She is actually my supervisor.

Secondly

, could you let me know another time I can visit? Because of the school, holidays I will be free in the new year and I will

also

be free in winter so if you are available

then

, I would certainly love to escape the cold to visit you. I can not wait to hear from you. Your friend. Richard.

The best way to solve traffic and transportation problems is to encourage people to live in cities rather than suburbs and the countryside. To what extent do you agree or disagree?
