You have just spent a weekend at a friend's house. When you returned home, you discovered you have left a coat containing some belongings in his house. Write a letter to your friend telling him that you left the coat. Tell him what the coat looks like, where you think you left it and what was inside it. Make some suggestions about how to get it back.
Hey Smit,
I just reached my home after spending a good time at your
place
. It was after so long that we had had a good time. I just realized that I had left my coat
at your place
and also
some belongings in it.
As I was unpacking my stuff, I realized my black trench coat
and my winter gloves and hat, which were in the side pockets of the coat
, were missing. The day before I left your place
, we got to your place
late at night after visiting the club; I left the coat
inside your wardrobe. Also
, I have the habit of keeping my winter gloves in the side pocket of the coat
.
This
weekend, as we all are gathering at John’s place
to celebrate his birthday, can you please bring my trench coat
and all of my belongings with you? I know you will be coming by your car, so it will not be problematic for you to carry it along with
you.
Thanks for understanding, and please let me know if you have any difficulties finding the coat
or if you have any changes to the plan.
Best Regards,

Greeting and Closing
Make sure your greeting and closing are appropriate for the context of the letter. 'Hey' is too informal. Consider using 'Dear [Friend's Name]' instead to maintain a suitable tone.
Suitable Writing Tone
Maintain a more consistent and suitable writing tone throughout the letter; a polite and friendly tone is recommended.
Logical Structure
Ensure the logical flow of information by adhering to a structured format: introduction, body, and conclusion.
Single Idea Per Paragraph
Each paragraph should centrally focus on a single idea to avoid any confusion for the reader.
Complete Response
While you included all the necessary information, going into more detail about your belongings and offering more suggestions for the return of your coat would enhance the response.
