Dear Uncle Harry, I hope you are well. Thanks so much for the presents you sent me for my birthday. I love them they're brilliant! When I was opening them I thought they were bowling balls. I'm glad that they weren't! I use them every day before school and I reckon I'm stronger already. My dad told me that using weights is a good way to get fit too. Maybe you should buy some for him! I really enjoyed my birthday. We had a barbecue in the garden and loads of friends came round. It was a laugh! My best mate gave me a baseball bat. We don't play baseball at school, but there are teams at the local gym. See you soon, I hope. And thanks again for the weights. Lots of love, Connor PS Mum and Dad send their love too. 1 Find informal words and phrases in the letter that mean:,• thank you,• very good,• I think,• lots of,• fun,• best friend,2 What phrases does he use to open and close his letter?,3 Which four different contractions does he use?
