Dear, dear Idunn,
Unthinkable, I’m afraid! Utterly unthinkable!
I jest, I jest. Rest assured that I have written to your professor to confirm the arrangements - and of course, as any responsible parent ought, I have asked him to send us daily reports of your behaviour, and to take plenty of pictures of the young apprentice! Your mother is already terribly excited to see them.
Much luck on your end of year exams. We are so very looking forward to having you back at home - after 5pm, at least!
Your favourite Father
