An old friend of yours is coming to visit your city. You had planned to meet him at the
airport, but something has come up and you will not be able to make it there on time.
Write to your friend. In your letter
 Explain the situation
 Offer to make alternate arrangements

Dear Amanda,

how are you doing and how is the family?Thank you for having me over for Christmas last year. I must say, the vacation was the best I have been in recent times. The best part for me was our visit to the Whispering palms, the swimming pool and the zoo. It brightens my day every time I look through the pictures.

I am glad when I received your letter about your proposed visit to Nigeria next month. It is refreshing knowing you have finally accepted to come down for Easter celebration. This would avail us the opportunity of visiting different monumental places in my country such as The Bar Beach, Eyo Museum, Obudu Cattle Ranch and so on.

Unfortunately, my organization departmental retreat would be holding on the same date of your arrival, and attendance was made compulsory for all staf.

As you can see, I would be unable to pick you up at the airport due to this work related restraint. However, my husband would be coming to receive you at the airport as soon as your plane touch down.

I hope you do understand, looking forward to see you soon.

Best Regards,

Amailia Johnson.
