Invitation to a House-Warming Party
Simla
18 May, 19…
Dear Mrs Bhanot,
You will be glad to know that our new house, “Megha Villa” is now complete and we are shifting tomorrow. As you know the house was the last wish my mother expressed. Although it was begun when she was still alive, it could not be completed in her presence. Perhaps it will now give great solace to her spirit.
The house is a beautiful double-storeyed one with 5 bedrooms. The sitting room is large and glassed on three sides for the sunlight to pour in throughout the day. There is a garden we have to develop around it. We are throwing a house-warming party on 28 May, 19… and are inviting just our immediate circle of friends at 10 a.m., Sunday.
Sorry for this short notice, but please put aside all other engagements for that day and come along with your family. We are fixing a barbecue in the warm open. Do give me a line to reassure me.
Yours truly,
Anita
Meghavilla,
Chota Simla,

Dear Anita,
We were overjoyed to learn that your house is finally ready. 0 how happy aunty would have been if she were to be alive today.
We’re certainly corning for the house-warming. Though I did have a prior appointment with a ladies club, I’ve told them off.
Thanks once again.
