Dear Tim,
I am writing
this
letter to ask you for a favor
next week. I am going to do a presentation in a nearby city to your home in an auditorium and, I have to install some essential equipment to deliver my lecture. I am mentioning the details of the presentation: Johnson Hall, Block A, Date: 14th September 2024, Owen Sound City.
I have purchased all the necessary tools and machines for the big day, but I am afraid that I do not know how to install many of them. As you are a technician, you will be the perfect person to help me arrange them. I have bought a projector and a laptop which need help to connect to the hall speakers which I am facing difficulty with. If you can come by that day and aid in arranging all these installations, I would be the luckiest person.
I am awaiting your response.
Your Friend,
JohnChange the spelling
