SAMPLE ANSWER
Dear John,
A few weeks ago, I sent a photo I had taken to the art gallery on Hive Street, and they have chosen it to appear in an exhibition they’re putting on next week. I had never submitted anything to an art gallery before, so I wasn’t expecting to hear back from them, which makes it all the more exciting for me.
The photo they are showing is one that I took at the pier about 6 months back during that lovely weather that we had. It was about 10 o’clock, and the sun was setting behind the mountain on the far side of the river. Because of the timing, there was no glare from the sun, and it was casting a beautiful warm orange glow across the sky.
I wanted to ask if you would like to come to the exhibition with me. The exhibition is on Wednesday and doesn’t start until 7 pm so I can pick you up at your place at around half five and we’ll get dinner somewhere first. So just let me know if you can go or not because I’ll find someone else to come with me if you’re not able.
Best wishes,
