SAMPLE ANSWER
Dear Eric,
Hope you are doing great. It’s been only two weeks since I last saw you and it already feels like a year! I am writing to offer you a concert ticket that I purchased a few days ago. As I can’t make it to the concert, I thought you should go.
On November 7th, Guns N’ Roses is coming to Oakland to rock the city. The full team would be on the stage and it would be a 4 hours’ blast at the Oakland Coliseum. I did not want to miss my favourite band’s live performance and purchased a ticket. Unfortunately, I will have to cancel it due to a sudden family tour to Canada during the time to meet my grandparents on their 50th wedding anniversary.
I know how much you revere Guns N’ Roses and that’s why I would like you to enjoy the concert. I did not want to disappoint my parents and dishearten my grandmother, who is eagerly expecting me on their marriage anniversary.
I will give the ticket to David, who is also going to the concert, and you can meet him prior to the concert to collect it. Do not forget to record the performance and share your experience with me when I get back and meet you.
Take care and have fun.
Warm regards,
Robert
