Hi Jason,
How are things? Did you get my email about
the party I'm having on Friday night? You
haven't answered me.
First of all, can you come? I know you've got
your driving test on Saturday, so you probably
want an early night.On the other hand, you'll
probably be nervous so maybe it would be a
good idea to get out and relax a bit

Anyway,even if you don't come , could I borrow a
few of your discs? I know you've got a lot of good
music . I was also wondering - could you lend me
your speakers as well? Mine aren't very good. I
promise that nothing will happen to them
Hope you can come. Please let me know-.
See you,
Cristina
