䊏 Task 11 Suggested answer
From:
To: Pamela Hutchinson
Subject: re coming to Germany
Dear Pam
That’s great news and I will be around during that time From my side, Oct 18 is probably the best for me as I still have a lot of work at the moment and also for the next couple of months.
How about if we meet at your hotel at 7 and go and have a drink by the river and then go and have a bite to eat in the old town? There are some really nice restaurants there that don’t cost an arm and a leg and have a really good atmosphere.
Let me know what you think.
Best regards
