a long journey. I had jet lag when I turned back home, thankfully, I have recovered quickly. I had a meeting with my boss today. When I was trying to present some figures to him, I realized that I had forgotten a file at your place. The file is a blue collar with a plastic cover and some paper in it. My company name, P&G, is written on it. As I remember, I left it on the work desk in the guest room. Would it be possible to send me that file by post? Paper, inside the file, is quite important. You can send it to me by receiver payment. I would be grateful if you sent it as soon as possible. Sorry for the inconvenience. Thank you very much for your help in advance See you soon, Cheers, Jane Fonda

The Greeting

Depending on the style and aim of the letter, you will need to adapt your greeting.

Always start an informal letter in the ways:

Dear + name
Hi / Hello + name

‘Dear...’ is more appropriate, so stick with this.

For a formal letter there are two options for the greeting:

Use Dear Sir or Madam if you don’t know the name of the person you are writing to.
Use Dear + surname if you do know their name, e.g. Dear Mr Smith or Dear Mrs Jones.
