Exercise 12 Write a letter invitation to visit to your friend

Dear Patrick,

I have just received your letter, and I hasten to answer. I think your idea of an exchange visit is excellent. We should be delighted to welcome your friends here this summer and to arrange an exchange with them for the next summer. Thank you very much for putting these suggestions to them as well. We are very glad that they agree to the proposal. I am sure we can make a success of it.

As to the details of the arrangements I will write to your friends directly.

Thank you very much for having taken the time to help us.

Kindest regards.
