Dear (Name),

How are you? How are your family members? I hope this letter finds you in the best of spirits. My son ____________ (Name) 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 ____________ (Place Name), it would be quite consid­erate of you to look for an accommodation in ____________ (Place Name). It has been a long time since you visited ____________ (Place Name), 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 ____________ (Name) settles down. I’m also scouting for a suitable boy for ____________ (Girl Name). If you have someone known to you who you find, is recommendable, then let me know. Convey my regards to your family members.

Thanking you,
(Your Name)

Dear (Name),

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 ____________ (Name) 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 ____________ (Place Name), it will be an occa­sion to revive old memories. As for my daughter ____________ (Girl Name), I’ll also start searching for a suitable boy very soon. In friendship there are no “ifs” and “buts”, so try to reach ____________ (Place Name) as early as possible to sort out your matters. And do not forget to come with your family. Awaiting your ar­rival.

Yours Friend Forever,
(Your Name)
