My word, how good it is to hear from you, even if your penmanship has not at all improved. Based on your choice of tone, I do not believe I have a say in the matter regarding our time of meeting? 9 PM is quite late. Have you been keeping busy? Is this why you cannot meet earlier?

In any case, I would be pleased to see you again. I’ve heard marvelous things about how you have risen in the ranks at the Ministry. Quite a departure from the cheeky boy I remember. I appreciate your sweet keepsake of me, as well. To think I was in the paper and you kept record after all these years!
