SAMPLE ANSWER
Dear …….…. ,
I can’t tell you how surprised I was when the package from Canada arrived. The postman brought it last Saturday and I was very excited when I saw that it was from you. Then, when I opened it and saw the beautiful silk scarf you’ve sent me for my birthday I have to say I was truly delighted. Thank you so much!
You remember my taste in colours very well. So, I really love the mix of blues and greys in the design, and the silk feels very soft. I can’t thank you enough for the gift. I know that I intend to wear it every weekend when I go out with the family- and we’ll have to take some pictures so you can see how good it looks, even if I say so myself.
So thank you once again. Chris. Give my regards to your folks, but lots of love to you and Peter.
I’ll write to you soon and send that photo!
Best wishes,
