Kevin A senior member of the university photography club (that you have just joined) has invited you to a house-warming party. Write 2 reply emails - one accepting, and one refusing the invitation. * He is 4 years older than you and you have only recently met him, so your reply should be on the formal side (but not too formal! – after all, he has set a fairly casual tone in his email.
