Dear Anita,

Thank you for your entertaining letter, which (arrive) yesterday. I (begin) to feel much better now although my leg still (hurt) if I (walk) too far.

I (walk) to their house quite easily, but while I (walk) home, my leg (start) to ache really badly. So this week I (be) more careful.

I’m very pleased you (manage) to find that book about Indian music that I (look) for. I have some cassettes you can borrow if you (want). I must sleep now, because I (feel) rather tired.

Please write again and send me some books. This is a lovely place, but you know me, I (get) bored very quickly!

With much love, Alice.
