Dear Mukesh,
Hope you are doing fantastic. As you already know, I'm moving to my dream house which I recently bought. I'd like to offer you some spotless furniture. I was about to sell furnishings at the marketplace, but
then
Sangeeta, my wife, reminded me that you were looking for the same.
For almost consecutive 5 years I am living in this
place, and I placed everything brand new at that time. So, we have paintings of Picasso which are of no use to us as we bought new ones. Along with
that, we got 2 single and 1 queen size bed in perfectly good condition.
It has been a really long since we did not get time to hang out, due to
which, I was thinking that maybe if it is all right with you, we can catch up next week in my old house. At the same time, you can see the furniture as well.
I will be looking forward to our tea party
Thank you,
