Dear Sumesh, I am so glad that after a gap of five years

finally

, you are coming to my city New Delhi. I can't express to you how excited I am to meet you! But there is a small hiccup, as decided earlier I won't be able to pick you up from the airport. My boss suddenly decided to visit the office and arranged a conference which will

last

for six hours for two consecutive days.

Along with

this

, my paternal uncle with his family came to stay at our residence on the same days. Owing to the above reasons, I won't find myself available for you. But that's only for two days. After that, I am free for you and will be there for you till your stay.

Furthermore

instead

of me, my friend Avinashi will come to pick you up from the airport and I have made all the arrangements for your stay at his villa. I know you will understand my situation . I promise that your stay in New Delhi will be a memorable one. Best wishes for your trip to New Delhi. Yours Truly, Gurleen

Use a variety of complex and simple sentences

You should use complex sentences in your writing, but it does not mean that you should try to make all of our sentences complex.

‘Complex’ sentences are not actually very complex; they are just two or more simple sentences put together. Putting them together makes the essay more coherent and cohesive.

Examples:

I really want to study but I’m too tired.

I wore a warm coat because the weather was cold.

If action is not taken soon on climate change, global warming will get worse.
