photos you sent me from our recent holiday together. It was a lovely surprise to receive them and reminisce about the fantastic times we shared. I must confess, I'm a bit embarrassed that I didn't write to you sooner. Unfortunately, I left my phone at the cafe, which prevented me from responding earlier. Please accept my apologies for the delay. Those photos brought back so many fond memories of our trip. Your thoughtfulness in capturing those special moments means a lot to me. I'm genuinely grateful for your friendship and hospitality during my stay. Now, I'd like to return the favour and invite you to come and stay with me whenever you'd like. It would be magnificent to have you over and catch up again. If you're planning another holiday trip, please don't hesitate to let me know, and we can start making arrangements. Thank you once again for the lovely photos and for being

such

a fabulous host. I look forward to hearing from you soon and hope you're doing well. Best wishes, Arthur
