Dear Mrs Barrett, I am writing to you as I am able to help you with some work on your house. I am working like a gardener and I can help you to take care of your
garden
. So
for example
, I could move your lawn and collect all of the leaves around the house and put them in my trailer. Next work what I could do is maintain your trees and bushes. I would like to help you with all of that work because you are almost my neighbour and
secondly
, because your
garden
isn't so big and will be very quick to look after your
garden
. Because I am so busy during the week, I will be available every Saturday morning from 9am all the following summer. Please let me know if is suitable for you and I will be happy to help you with your
garden
. Kind regards Petr Kroupa
