Dear Chris,
I’m writing to you –from our new address.
We’re still unpacking – there’s so much to do. Mum and Dad are very pleased because they think the new house is 1 larger and 2 more comfortable than our old one. Mum is already saying that it’s 3 the most attractive house in the neighborhood. Вut as you know, my parents can be terrible snobs sometimes!
I’m not so sure that the move was a good decision. The garden’s much 4 smaller than our old one. We’re a little 5 nearer to the city centre, but it’s 6 further from school, so I get home 7 later in the evenings and I have up 8 earlier in the mornings too!
I hope we can still see each other. I know my parent’s didn’t get on very well with yours, but I really like you. You re one of the 9 friendliest people I know.
Please write.
Love
Jacky x
Jacky is the Coopers’ daughter.
