A friend is expecting you to stay with him in two weeks’ time, but unfortunately you forgot that you have a business trip at the same time. Write a letter to your friend. In your letter, -Apologise and say that you cannot come to visit. -Explain why you will not be able to visit. - Suggest another time that you could visit.
Dear Joan,
I hope you’re well.
I’m
afraid that I could not come to visit you this
summer.
After hearing that you got your new house, I’ve been excited to go to your place and stay during July. I was really looking forward to catching up with you, but something has come up and I’m
not going to be able to make it. I’m
really sorry that I have to cancel the trip, especially since we haven’t seen each other for ages.
So, what’s my excuse? My boss just reminded me that our company will take part in an exhibition in Milan which will run from July 10th to 20th, and I’m
assigned to be in charge of introducing our new products to customers who will visit our booth. Then
, our company will grant a free Europe tour for me and some colleagues, so I will only come back at the end
of July.
However
, on a positive note, my company has allowed me to take all my annual leaves this
autumn, so perhaps I will visit you then
. Did you say that it’s fantastic to see the leaves changing their colour, right?
Sorry for the summer and see you in Autumn.
Best regards,
