Hi John,
I 1) am writing to let you know that I really 2) like your new website. I 3) am thinking of creating my own site but I 4) don't know how to do it. My elder brother, who 5) knows a lot about computers, has too little time to help me. Just imagine — he 6) is always studying! So, can you help me a bit? I 7) hope that you 8) don't mind. What 9) are you planning to do this Sunday? In the morning Mom and I 10) are going shopping — she 11) wants to buy a new coat — but I 12) believe we’ll be back at around 2 pm. If you are free, maybe you can come to my house. I 13) live at 23 Green Street.
Hope to hear from you soon, Kate
