A friend who lives in another country has invited you to come and stay with him on your next holiday. You are too busy to accept the invitation. Write a letter to your friend. In your letter: Thank him for the invitation Explain why you cannot come Ask him about other times to visit

Dear Kamal, I am writing this letter to thank you for the invitation. I was overwhelmed with joy when I received your invite and its gives me goose bumps when I dream of holidays with you at your place. But unfortunately, I can’t come this time due to my hectic work schedule. Let me explain to you in more detail. I am currently working on a critical project and need to travel to Dubai for its implementation. I will be outside the country for a whole month. I hope you will understand my situation and forgive me this time. However, there is no need to get disheartened as I can avail of a month long holiday after project completion. I hope we can plan a trip in early September. Let me know if that is convenient to you. I am really excited about this opportunity to relish the beauty of beaches in Australia with you. Last but not least, I have lots of gossips to share with you. Hope to see you soon. Warm regards Sam
