Letter 1

Dear Mr Jackson,

When unpacking your cases with the equipment we experience difficulties owing to the cases being too low. The space between the top of the cases and the top of the equipment is too small and as a result some pieces of equipment are getting damages on the top.

We suggest therefore that you should make the cases with one board of about 20 cm higher, which would enable us to unpack the cases without damaging the cars.

We are looking forward to your answer.

Yours sincerely,

Letter 2

Dear Sirs,

We have received your letter of the 15^th May and are sorry to hear you are experiencing difficulties in unpacking cases owing to the insufficient height of them.

We have contacted the manufacturing plant and arranged for the cases to be made about 20 cm higher as suggested by you.

We thank you for bringing the matter to our attention and feel sure that in future the cases will not cause your any trouble.

Yours faithfully,
