Dear Jordan,
Thankyou verymuch for your recent invitation. Grandad and I will certainly come along to your school concert. We love Fluff but we won’ t bring him to your concert. He isn’ t trained yet. He doesn’ t sit still and, sometimes, he barks and jumps up at people. People don’ t like badly behaved dogs and we don’ t want him to spoil the concert. Do you still have guitar lessons? Do you enjoy them? I used to play the piano when I was your age and I wish I had not given it up. Keep practising and we will see you on April 5th.
Love from, Grandma
