A message to say you're late
Do the preparation task first. Then read the text and tips and do the exercises.
Preparation

I'm running 10 mins late, sorry!
No problem!
Aargh! Traffic is really bad. I'll be more than 10 mins late now, sorry again!!
It's OK, don't worry. I'm in the café already so it's fine
This is not my day! I'm here but can't find a place to park. I'm looking for a different car park. Not sure how long I'll be
OK, LMK when you find a place
I might get something to eat tho
Of course! I'll be as quick as I can
OK!
Found one! Be there in 10 mins
Well done! See you soon
Thx for waiting
Tips
1. You don't need to write complete sentences for text messages.
2. Use abbreviations like LMK (= let me know) or use emojis to save time writing.
3. You don't need to use full stops (.) at the end of messages.
4. Say how many minutes you think you'll need, e.g. I'm running 10 minutes late.
5. It’s good to say sorry and sorry again, but you don't need to say sorry in every message.
Hi! I can’t to be on the time. I hope write right
I have a tme to late for studdy and work

I'm usually on time whenever there's an appointment.And I get angry when people are late more than 20min
I' wake up late, sorry I'm running out of time
Iam late because I getting up late
I usually take few time early when I go to work or I have an appointment.
So I add few mins to be ahead of schedule.
Hi, I usually arrive on time. I dislike to be late so I'll be sure to anticipate any problems on the road.
