When you get out of the station, turn right. Keep walking for about 5 minutes, you’ll see a small bridge ahead. Go over the bridge, walk past a medical centre, turn left into Parker Avenue, keep to the. right of the avenue, walk past a shop and two houses, my house is just after the street corner, opposite a bakery’s. You can’t miss it. I have enclosed a map so that you can follow my directions easily.

Looking forward to welcoming you to my house.                      

Love,

Rosie
