Subject: Birthday meal

Hi,

It's my birthday soon, and I'm thinking of having a meal in a restaurant with all my friends — including you! Do you think it's a good idea? Yes!

There's a good new restaurant in town, which serves all kinds of delicious burgers, or there's also a great vegetarian restaurant. Which one would be better? Tell Robbie....

Let me know if you have any questions! Ask Rob
