Dear Jane,
Great to get your letter! Sorry to hear about your dog. My mum says that twelve is quite a good age for a dog. Maybe your mum will let you get another puppy soon.
So, only three month until you`re here. I can`t wait! You asked me about what clothes you should bring. Don`t bother bringing any heavy clothes. It`s too hot in the summer for sweaters or coats. If I were you, I`d make sure I had lots of T-shirts and pairs of shorts. And don`t forget your swimsuit! We`ll be going to the beach almost every day!
You asked if there was anything else I thought you should bring.

Lots of love,
Nicky.
