borrow a book from the
library – the local library may have a useful “how-to” guide
buy a racquet & some
balls (don’t spend too much – about 50-75 pounds – you might not like it) – As

A. Dear Mrs Brown,
I would like to offer
our sincere apologies for the unfortunate delay to the delivery of your goods
and the inconvenience it has caused. I can assure you that we are doing our
utmost to rectify this situation as soon as possible.
The reason for the delay
is that unfortunately it received some damage in transit. As a result, we were
forced to wait for a replacement to be sent in the subsequent delivery from our
suppliers. However, it has now been delivered and we will dispatch your order
within twenty-four hours.
We deeply regret this
unfortunate situation and hope to retain your valued custom. By way of
compensation we would like to offer you a complimentary carry case and three
rolls of film.
Yours sincerely,
Jane Thomson
