Answer 1

Dear Marianne,

How are you? I am writing to tell you our great news.

As you know, Brad is working for an international media company. Well, he was offered the opportunity of a lifetime last week - to live and work in Madrid for two years.

He is leaving tomorrow for sunny Spain to look for a flat for us. He flies at noon so I am making a long list of the things he needs to consider before choosing a flat. We have so many things to do when he comes back.

We are attending Sally's wedding in May and we have to pack all our things. I am looking forward to it so much, I can hardly wait.

Jack and Katie are fine. They grow up so quickly that it seems like only yesterday they were babies.

Well, the kids are waiting for me to make their lunch so I'd better go. I hope you're all fine.

We'll see you at Sally's wedding.

Love, Fiona​
