Dear John and Jane,

I hope this letter finds you well. I am just writing to thank you both for the holiday and for the photos you sent.

The photos arrived this morning in the post. They reminded me what a great time i had during my stay with you last month. You really were fantastic hosts, and i could't asked for better guides to show me around.

Sorry i did not write you earlier, but i have been working flat out since the moment i arrived home. Do you remember i told you i have an assignment to finish? Well, the deadline was two weeks earlier that i think it was.

Anyway, i am back to normal now and i have been handed all of my assignment. In fact, now that i am free why don't you come both and stay? There is a spare room here and you are welcome to use it whenever you like.

Hope to see you son,
Patrick
