How to write a postcard 

Emma's writing a postcard from her home town. Let's look at it more closely. When you write a real or electronic postcard to send to someone, remember to begin with 'Dear (name)' or 'Hello'. Then write about some of these things:

1. Where you are (I'm in London)
2. Where you are staying (I'm staying at a wonderful hotel)
3. What you have done (I've been to see The Tower of London and I've been on a ferry down The River Thames. I've eaten the best fish and chips in the whole of Britain!)
4. What you are going to do (Tomorrow I am going to see a musical)
5. What it's like (I'm having the time of my life)
6. Sign-off (Wish you were here. Love from Emma)
