Dear Pat,

I hope you have been well since we last met, the weekend I spent with you at your place was very special and i had a lot of fun. Although, I seemed to have forgotten my coat there with you, my coat had some of my belongings which are very dear to me.

It was a trench coat that resembled the vintage look that actors used to have in the 80’s, long brown coat with 3 tan buttons and it gave off a very aesthetic look. I believe the last time i saw it was when we came back after dinner on Saturday night and I placed it on the coat rack in your hallway close to the main door. The coat had my ID cards and my work badge along with my bank cards and some cash.

I know it’s a long way to commute to my place and I couldn’t ask you to do that for me knowing well enough how busy you are, I suggest it would be the most convinient for both of us if you could parcel it to me through mail, I ofcourse will bear any charges that it takes to be mailed.

Cheers,

Dom
