Dear Kenneth,
I am incredibly sorry not to have been in touch recently. Things have been a bit hectic around here.
My big news is that I am no longer in the financial sector. Thank goodness!
As I probably mentioned to you last time we met, I was getting sick and tired of working in the
bank. Getting up every morning to join the rat race really wasn’t my cup of tea. I was completely
disillusioned with it and it had started to affect my mental and physical health.
For the last couple of months, I have been looking for something a bit more exciting and eventually
plucked up the courage to apply for a job as a juggler and children’s entertainer. I’ve always thought
I had a real flair for that sort of thing. Surprisingly, considering I had no previous experience, I got
the job and Saturday was my first ‘gig’. It was terrifying but brilliant I haven’t had so much fun in
ages and it didn’t take too long to get all the cake out of my hair when I got home.
Well, of course, there is a downside. I have had to give up my swanky apartment in the city
centre.
I’m earning a lot less than I used to and just can’t afford the rent. And, on top of that, Maria and I
have split up. It turns out she was keener on my huge salary than on me myself. Never mind!
It would be lovely to hear your news so, whenever you have a moment, drop me a line.
Take care
Mikhail
