Dear Mr Evans,
1 would like to make an appointment to see you to discuss either a loan or overdraft to enable me to expand my business.
Over the past year I have been testing the market with a new line - furniture assembly kits - and have found that demand for these kits, both here and overseas, has exceeded my expectations. In the past six months alone I have had over £60,000 worth of orders, half of which I could not fulfill because of my limited resources.

There is much controversy over the identity of thebook’s author. Some people think the book was written by a very good cook named Marcus GaviusApicus. Others don’t think that this book came from him. The book does not tell how to prepare the dishes, but it does tell what to put in each dish.
European historical architecture are among the most well–known in the world. One example of a famous architectural structure is called “Stonehenge,” in England. Stonehenge has many, very large stones set up in circles. No one knows why the stones were set up that way, because it was at a time before history was recorded. Many people think Stonehenge is holy. In addition to Stonehenge, The
“Acropolis” in Athens, Greece is also very famous for its architectural structures. The Acropolis is a flat–topped hill, which lies about 150 meters above sea level. Many historical temples and other buildings were built on the Acropolis. The Acropolis is a huge tourist site. About 14 million people visit this location each year.
