Dear Richard.
Thanks for your letter. It was nice of you to drop me a line. My house is quite cosy. It’s a small house in the suburbs. It has two bedrooms, a bathroom, a kitchen and a lounge.There’s a small
garden, too. My bedroom is upstairs. I don't
really hang out in my room much. I prefer to
be outside with my friends.
In my area, there is a park where I play football
and ride my bike. There is also a small games
arcade where I sometimes go to play pinball.
Well, that’s all for now. Write soon.
