Dear Mr and Mrs Archer,

It was very kind of you to invite me to Deborah's 19th birthday party. The party was a great success and everybody enjoyed themselves very much. It was a great honor and real pleasure for me to finally meet Deborah's family. I am especially grateful to you for putting me up for the night.

In the hurry of packing to leave, I seem to have forgotten a deep blue sweater at your home. Could you please put it in the post for me? I'll pay Deborah back next time we meet on campus. Please accept my apologies.

Many thanks for your kindness.

Yours sincerely,

Brian (Atkinson)
