Scenario: Wendy is going away on a holiday and her friend Jennifer is looking after her apartment while she is away. Below is the letter for Jennifer from Wendy with instructions.
Dear Jennifer,
Thank you so much for taking care of my apartment this week while I am away. I know we talked about things over the phone, but here are some reminders for you. Would you please feed the cat twice a day? The cat food is on the kitchen counter. Also will you check her water bowl? She drinks a lot of water on hot days.
The plants will probably be okay, but if you could please check them?
Would you do me one more small favour please? I receive lots of mail, so the mailbox can get very full. Would you please empty the mailbox every day? Please leave any mail that comes on the dining room table.
Oh and by the way, I have left some chocolate cake in the fridge, it’s delicious! You are more than welcome to try some.
Thanks again, and I’ll see you next week when I get back home.
Wendy xx
