My Dear,It is quite unfortunate that year 2006 had passed without your dream being accomplished. Note that I vehemently wrote more than three mails to you asregards a good measure for your contract payment but you did not see to listen to me.
I wish to inform you once more that I am ever willing to assist you get your contract payment.But you must give me a promissory note stating your willingness to give me a reasonable amount of money from your contract payment immediately you get the payment.
You should try and get back to me as soon as possible for more details.The new development will only last for one week.
