I am satisfied with some of your services. However , there is still something that I am dissatisfied with . Firstly, the post office is closed too early. Sometimes I need to make an emergent phone call after 9 and this service is not available . Secondly, the prices for sending oversea mails after far too expensive compared with other post offices in the district. Finally, there is no one to look after the motorbikes of the customers. Therefore, we are always nervous when leaving the motorbikes outside. I would suggest that the post office should open until 10 p. m and that there should be someone to keep an eye on the motorbikes of customers.	I’m looking forward to hearing from you .	Yours sincerely ,	 Allen SmithHomework : Rewrite their letters at home Good bye - see you again
