**EMAIL**
From: Chris
Subject: My new hobby!
Hi,
I've just started learning to play the guitar and I'm loving it! My teacher says I'm improving quickly. Would you like to come to my house next Saturday and hear me play a few songs?
Also, I remember you told me about a new hobby you started recently — what is it exactly, and do you enjoy it?
Thanks so much for helping me choose which guitar to buy last month — your advice was really useful!
Let me know if Saturday works for you, and don't forget to write back soon.
Best,
Chris
