Dear Rog-ur

Freddie sounds fun. 

And okay! I'll stop apologising. But I am truly sorry. I'm awful at conversation. Please feel free to just not reply. Yes, i'll probably cry since you're the only source of contact I have with somebody near my age (at least I hope you are. You could be a creepy old man for all I know) and it truly is a delight to exchange these letters with you. They make my day, honestly.

And yes, I can speak Italian. I wouldn't say i'm fluent, per se, but I do know a great deal. And what would be the point in sending a letter in pure Italian? you wouldn't understand it, you numptey, anche se sarebbe molto divertente! 

Should I say im flattered that you think Italian is a 'hot' language and a 'massive turn on'? 

And of course you may ask why I moved. Feel free to ask anything. I moved here when I was 14 because, long story short, my father passed away and my mother hit depression quite hard. She couldn't look after me and so my grandmother offered to look after me here. Sorry for the downer on the conversation but you asked! 

And yes! I do play bass. Again, should I say i'm flattered that you again think that's hot? Well, I am. Very flattered. Thank you :p . 

And yes, we should start a band. Invite Freddie, too. He seems like a rather great guy. Sounds quite camp, too, but what can I say? If you saw me in real life you'd probably say the same... but then again, you wouldn't be wrong haha. 

I like you too, Roger. I'm glad you messaged me. It feels good to have a friend (that sounds so melancholy but Italy is just full of old age Italian pensioners.... at least where I am it is.) 

Reply soon! Please. haha. 

From,

John.
