Dear Lisa,
Thanks for your letter. I had just left for school when I saw the postman and he gave it to me.
It was really funny! I had read it during Maths and it made me laugh. I almost got in trouble! Anyway, I'm excited because I had my first judo lesson yesterday. I was late for the lesson because when I got there, I suddenly realised I had left my judo suit at home! So I went all the way home and when I got back, the lesson had already begun. The instructor was really nice, though, and I learned how to do some basic throws. Can't wait till next time!
What about you and your taekwondo? The last time I spoke to you, you talked about giving it up. What had you decided?
I think that's all for now. My mum and I are going shopping shortly, so I'd better post this.
Speak to you soon.
Love,
Charlotte
