    Hi Sylvie

    Just a quick note to say we are very (7) sorry for the delivery delay.

    I’m afraid we have to (8) put off the delivery date for 10 days because the truck drivers’ strike.

    When exactly do you (9) need the goods? If it’s very urgent I’ll (10) ask the mangager of the forwarders
    whether we can (11) set up a special delivery somehow.

    I’ll (12) get in touch asap, but please let me know the latest date for the goods.

    Despite this, have a nice day!

    Rgds

    Jean
