Dear Jill,
Hope you are well. I await your reply to two emails I have sent you (13/9 and 
22/9) regarding course fees and dates. 

It seems you are a busy woman, so I'll look elsewhere for instruction.

Sincerely,
Gavin Heyer

Geoff I can do this one as well if you like - I am busy but with plenty of 
boring plane trips. Again I know the editer and am a buddy of Jeans.
