Sample answer

Hi Violet,

Thanks for your message! Grandad is doing much better now, thanks for asking. It was touch and go for a while, but he's on his road to recovery.

Scotland'd been amazing so far! The weather's been a bit dreich, but the people are so friendly. Still exploring, but I'll send you some photos soon.

Glad to hear you've settled in your new place in Toronto. Moving can be such a hassle, but it sounds like you're making progress. Can't wait to see your new house!

BTW, my new house is in Glasgow. I'll shoot you my new phone number ASAP so we can catch up properly. Take care!

Best,

Patrick
