Dear Mr. Benton
I saw your
advertisement for a Business Journalist in today’s Guardian newspaper. I am
very interested in the job and I think that I have many of the necessary qualifications.
I studied politics
and modern languages at Oxford
University. I am fluent
in French, German and Spanish. I have travelled widely in Europe and South America, and I have worked as a business journalist
for the BBC for the last five years.
I enclose a copy of my
curriculum vitae. I look forward to hearing from you soon. Please let me know if
you need more information.
Yours sincerely
Nancy Mann

I am cured from herpes…it works…
ReplyDeleteI was diagnosed as a Hepatitis B carrier back in 2015, with early signs of liver fibrosis. Antiviral meds helped at first, but over time, the virus became resistant, and I started to lose hope.
In 2021, I came across NaturePath Herbal Clinic (www.naturepathherbalclinic.com) and decided to try their herbal treatment, even though I was skeptical. To my surprise, after six months, my blood tests came back negative for the virus.
It was honestly life-changing. I never expected such results from a natural treatment, but it gave me a second chance and I believe it could help others too.
