Band 6+: You are planning a surprise birthday party for a close friend and need help from their family. However, you don't have their contact information. Write a letter to a mutual friend explaining the situation and requesting the family's contact information. You should include: - the purpose of the party and why it's a surprise - details about the type of contact information you need - assurances that the information will be kept confidential.

Hello John! How things are? I hope you are doing well. So, since there is only week left untill Martin’s birthday, we need to decide what surprize we are going to gift him. Yesterday evening I was wondering about the surprize party. I guess it is the best option to make him happy and pleased. Party, which I was planning, is consisting from 2 celebrations.

First of all, I have already talked to his mom about surprise and she allowed us to enter his appartments and decorate them. I have an idea about decorating his home with mascots of our local soccer team, where he is playing. Ballons, posters and medals will definetly cheer him up. Moreover, I would like to invite his coach and teammates to commend our friend.

It is certainly true, that he will wait congratulations from family and friends, thats’s why I am texting you. I need your support with organization of the main event. The main event is live perfomance of his favourite song, which is going to be sang by friends and family. I guess you know the name of this song and why it is so significant for him. If he haven’t told you yet, the song is called “Touch the sky”, by Kanye West. It is important for him by the reason of his first championship, where his team has won the first place. After the game, players were celebrating and listening to this song. By that period of time, this song was very popular. It encouraged and motivated him to achieve his goals and be more hardworking. So, I have heard that you gained a lot of experience, while attending local chore. That’s why I want you to bring some equipment, for instance: microphones, speakers and etc. Also if you can, could you please teach and practice with us, because no one had such an activity, like you did.

Finally to keep our present in confidence, you shouldn’t mention anything about our plans in his attendance. I have already discussed and dealed with his family and our other friends. Another thing I wanted to say is keeping your actions secretly too. Because if he will somehow know about party, we are exposed.

Thus, that’s why I have wrten this email for you. I appreciate for your effort, looking forward for your responce. Bye!
