Dear Peter,
The reason I am writing to you is to invite you to a secret birthday party for Nemo, who felt overwhelmed and depressed lately.
To begin
with, my friends and I are concerned about Nemo's well-being these days and we want to cheer him up. We are considering going to the neighbouring village called Mihya to try rafting because he once said that he would like to try something new.
Secondly
, I would like to give you details about the date and time. It will take place on 10 May at 9am. We are going to meet near Nemo's house and then
call him and ask to go out. It must be a surprise for him so we do not say any details or hints. He will be so happy!
In addition
, we decided that every one of us would take something with us. Thus
, you can choose between fizzy drinks or fruits. Therefore
, we will have a picnic together after rafting.
To sum up
, I hope you will accept my invitation and, of course, If you have some questions, I would like to hear your opinion on that.
I look forward to your reply.
