Dear Jim

 

How are things in Wicklow? I haven’t seen you in ages, so I decided to write and give you all the news from Glentown.

 

The football team is doing really well this season. We have reached the semifinal of the cup! The new goalkeeper is great – he hasn’t let in a goal in the past three matches.

 

My sister, Sandra, has just had a baby girl, so I’m now an uncle. Maybe I’ll be able to make some money from babysitting and then I can come down and visit you.

 

Write soon and let me know all your news.

 

  

Best wishes
