Dear Lizzy,

Hi! How is it going? Thanks a lot for your last message. It was great to hear from you. I’m really glad that you had a great time in Paris. I’ve got lots to tell you, too.

Well, yesterday I went virtual shopping! You know, I’m the kind of person who likes going shopping with my friends. I also like trying things on to see if they fit and whether they suit me. However, Tattoo Clothes have a lovely catalogue, which they send free to your home address and where they advertise their online shopping services.

So, I decided to visit their website. The prices were very reasonable as the sales were on. I ordered a pair of jeans, two tops and a swimming costume. Today they’ve been delivered. Imagine!!! They all fit perfectly, so I won’t have to send anything back! I’m sure you should try and order some clothes online, too. It’s really convenient.

Anyway, I’d better go now. Mum wants me to help with the housework before I do my homework. Take care, Lizzy, and stay in touch!

Lots of love,

Dana.
