> This place is really nice. It even has a washing machine, situated right

> pulled the chain and haven't seen them since.
> The weather here isn't too bad. It rained only twice last week. The first

> The coat you wanted me to send you, your Aunt said it would be a little

> off and put them in the pocket.
> Your father has another job. He has 500 men under him. He is cutting the
> grass at the cemetery.
>
> By the way I took Bahu to our club's poolside. The manager is really

> club. We were confused as to which piece should we remove?
> Your sister had a baby this morning. I haven't found out whether it is a
> girl or a boy, so I don't know whether you are an Aunt or Uncle.
> Your uncle, Jetinder fell in a nearby well. Some men tried to pull him
> out, but he fought them off bravely and drowned. We cremated him and he

> digging a grave for his father.
> There isn't much more news this time. Nothing much has happened.
> P.S: Beta, I was going to send you some money but by the time I realized,
> I had already sealed off this letter.
