Hi Paul, I'm sorry I haven`t replied to your email before now, but finally here`s some news. Helen has left college now and she starts her first job. She bought lots of new clothes to wear at work because she needs to look smart. Things have gotten better for Harry. He found a new girlfriend and he became a lot happier. Her name is Martha and I didn`t meet her, but people told me that she's really nice. The weather is terrible. The rain hasn`t stopped for ages. You made a good decision - Im sure it's lovely where you are! (Проверено носителем языка).
