Thank you for your letter. My congratulations on your victory.
In your letter you asked me about popular sports in my country. Well, there are a lot such sports. For example, there are football, hockey, tennis and figure skating. As for me I'm not find of sport I can call myself a coach-potato. But I wouldn't mind about watching football match on TV or enjoy figure skating competitions. I am not keen on sports at all but sometimes my friends and I play different team games in the yard.
Sorry, but I have to finish just now. I'm going to the party tonight.
