Thank you very much for your letter, enquiring about availability of conference
facilities at this hotel for 1-4 September. I note your request for a special menu for the
conference dinner on your final evening. You will find suggestions enclosed.
Unfortunately, during the week you have chosen for your conference, there is a trade
fair. Therefore, we have very few single rooms available. I could offer you
twin-bedded rooms, or perhaps you would consider moving your conference to the
following week?
I look forward to receiving your booking and choice of dishes for the conference
dinner.
? Write a fax to Mrs Saunders:

Fax to Sally Saunders
Dear Mrs Saunders
Thank you for your fax. I am afraid I confirm my original dates for the conference because we cannot move it to the following week.
I am going to book 20 twin-bedded rooms. About the special menu – I would like some typical dishes because most of the participants come from other countries.
