Hi Thank you very much for helping me!! It helped alot to make my knees stop shaking ;-)

One last question: does it sound ok? Is there enough information in it and does it sound like an interessting person? Do you have any other ideas what else i could write?

Hi,

in my opinion your letter contains way too much information than necessary and the structure isn't coherent enough. Try to think like the Brits and rewrite it
