Dear Josie,

I hope you doing very well. You haven’t told me about your last trip to India yet. So owing me news hey! But in this opportunity I am writing you to see if you are interesting on buying my old grandma wardrobe from me. I am really struggling with all things I need to get sorted as I am moving up. So I have decided to take less items with me, and because I am moving to an smaller apartment, I think that wardrobe is way too big to fit in the new place.

I am sure you remember it, but it is the large wooden one that was always in my room and the same one that was at mum’s house before, we used to play and dress up a lot within that wardrobe. It is a solid furniture, made from Karri wood and designed for a famous carpenter back on the 70’s. You know I am very sensitive with material possesions that have emotional value for me. Therefore, I want you to keep this item rather than sell it online to an strange, or having my sister in law claiming for it to take it to her place! I’d rather die.

Please tell me if you are free next Monday, where I will be free all day at home packing up stuff, so you can come and see it, check whether you like it and we have an excuse to catch up!

Let me know what you think!

Lots of love,

Val
