Hi, it’s me. How’s it going? I guess you’re at work and you don’t have your phone on, right?
First of all, thank you, THANK YOU for the birthday card and message. I received it this
morning. That’s so nice of you. I’m organizing a little party for my birthday. It’s nothing very
big – only a few of my best and closest friends. That means you too! We’re going to have it at
my cousin’s house. She lives in the countryside in a nice big house with a swimming pool. I’d
love to see you there. It’s going to be this Friday. I’ll send you the instructions on how to get
there later, OK?
Anyway, have fun at work. Don’t work too hard, OK? Talk soon.

Aw, you’re still not answering your phone! OK, here are the instructions to get to my cousin’s
house for the party. Are you going to take your car? If you take the car, drive straight on
Forest Road until you get to the motorway. Drive past Brownsville and take exit 13A. That’s
13A. You drive down the road there and turn left. It’s the first big house on the right. OK? If
you’re taking a bus, you can get the number 80 to Brownsville. Call me when you get there
and somebody can pick you up in a car. I can’t wait. This is going to be so great!
