Dear Karen,
Thanks for your letter of 10th January.I*m really happy to become your new pen friend.
Ferst of all I*m really sorry I haven*t written back sooner but I*ve been buzy.I had to stady for my exams.They were very hard and I didn*t have time for anything.Fortunately, I passed all of them and now I*m having my winter break.
I*d like to hear more about your work,what music you like,what you do in your free time and anything else you think I should know about you.
As for me,I come from a small familly.There are thre of us:my mum,my dad and me.My parents live in the country.They are retired.I live in the centre of London in a flat.
Anyway ,I*d love to be in touch with you and I can*t wait to hear from you again.
Lots of love
Mary
