Here is an example:

Hi Anne,
It was great to hear from you. I hope you and your family are well and that you had a nice Christmas. My holidays were great. I spent a week at my parents´ house in York and then went to London for a few days with friends. Christmas Day was really low key. We exchanged presents and my parents cooked dinner for the whole family. After we had stuffed our faces we watched TV for the rest of the night. On Boxing Day I went to the sales and I bought that pretty dress I had told you about the last time we met. It was half price. You know that I can´t resist a bargain! I´m hoping to wear it to your birthday party next month. New Year´s Eve was a blast! We went out in London for some drinks and danced until the early hours. You´ll never guess who I bumped into! Yes, it was him, the guy we had been talking about and who I never thought I would see again. By the way, his name is Richard and he works for the BBC down south. As you see, I´ve got every reason to think that my holidays were great. Friends, family, good food, a new dress, and who knows, maybe a new boyfriend! 

Speak to you soon.

Hugs and kisses,

Nadine
