You are organising a weekend away with a group of friends. You receive an email from a friend,
Louisa, asking whether her sister and niece can come too.
Read the extract from Louisa’s email and read the other information. Write a reply to Louisa,
answering her questions and giving reasons.
You said you have places left for the weekend away, and I was wondering, can my sister come too? I
think you met her when you stayed with us. The thing is, she has a three-year-old daughter, Maddy,
and my sister wants to bring her as well. Do you think it’s possible?
Louisa
