Dear Andi,

How are you? How are your family members? I hope this letter finds you in the best of spirits. My son Kevin has completed his graduation in commerce and is now planning to do a course in company secretary ship. As you are my only friend in Toronto, it would be quite consid­erate of you to look for an accommodation in Toronto. It has been a long time since you visited Goldcoast, so why don't you make a programme with your family to visit your ancestral home. It is quite warm here during the day but by evening the temperature lowers down. I have got another five years to retire from my job and it is my desire that Kevin settles down. I'm also scouting for a suitable boy for Linda. If you have someone known to you who you find, is recommendable, then let me know. Convey my regards to your family members.

Thank you,
Bob

Dear Bob,

Going through your letter, I got the impression that you are sounding too formal. Maybe that's what teaching pro­fession does to people. Anyway, you can send Kevin any any day you feel, without any second thought. I am of the opinion that your son is like my son, so instead of search­ing for an accommodation, he can stay with us. But for that you should make a trip to Toronto, it will be an occa­sion to revive old memories. As for my daughter Linda, I'll also start searching for a suitable boy very soon. In friendship there are no "ifs" and "buts", so try to reach Toronto as early as possible to sort out your matters. And do not forget to come with your family. Awaiting your ar­rival.

Your Friend Forever,
Andi
