Dear Shafi,
Just a line to tell you how much we enjoyed your company at the Zoo. It goes to your credit to have planned such a picnic. Even the ice-cream party was inspired by you. I was never great for going to things by myself. We all appreciate your suggestions very much.
Yours lovingly,
Abdur Rahim.
