Hey Liz,

How's it going? Sorry I haven't been in touch for ages. I wanted to write, but it's been so busy at work as usual. How's life? Are you still enjoying Madrid?

I hope you job is less crazy than the last time I talked to you!

So, I just wanted to ask if you're doing anything on 16th July. I have some relatives who live near Madrid and they've asked me to come over to their place for a party in the afternoon. Do you fancy coming with me?

We can stay with mu uncle and aunt for the weekend, so it wouldn't be expensive. 

It's not a really formal thing, by the way, it's just going to be a big picnic so casual clothes will be fine.

Anyway, let me know what you think and we can make some plans. It would be awesome to get together again!

Speak soon!

All the best,

Fran 

 

Hi Tom,

How's it going? I feel like I haven't spoken for ages! I just wanted to ask if you're doing anything next Saturday. 

I'm inviting a few people to to come to my place to watch the football and It 'd be really awesome if you could come. 

By the way, Jenny wil be there, so you guys can catch up. I don't think you've seen each other since our Paris trip, right?

Anyway, speak soon and let me know if you fancy coming.

Gianni

                                               COMMENT ADVERBS

Many adverbs describe verbs: I'm studying hard. I usually understand things quickly. 

You can also use adverbs to show your attitude towards a whole sentence or clause. 

They are usually used at the start of the sentence/clause and followed by a comma. 

A ------------------ = thus is the real fact
