Dear John,
I hope you are doing well, I am writing
this
letter, to thank you for your company during my business trip last
week. I believe you enjoy it too.I have to go to New York again, and I would be delighted if you could spend the evening with me.
The last
one was great, you know I love playing chess and drinking whisky, I didn't even realize you are such
a good player.
I will be in the city from Monday to Friday, and I truly believe you will find free evening, this
time I will bring my own chessboard. I have done some research, and I already know a perfect place where we can meet.
I will stay near Wall Street, there is a nice Irish Pub called Green Island, I think it would be a nice spot to spend some time.
I looking forward to seeing you,
Best Wishes,
