Write an informal letter

Hi David,

Nice hearing from you, I'm glad to hear you're getting by okay in these grim times.  

You asked how’s it going for us back here in New Zealand.  

You would have heard that the whole country is locked down and with breaks for exercise and shopping, we’re all living under a sort of voluntary house arrest.It’s possible to get by without organised sports, Friday drinks,Sunday drives, restaurant dinners, trips to the Op shop. We are apparently quite able to live without the TAB, without McDonalds, without prostitution.

Already in the short term, different class interests here have sharply asserted themselves. For example, some employers have insisted on unsafe work practices and there’s been workers strike action in response.

Best to your and yours,

Don
