I represent Team Venture and we’ve put together an app called Ampi Apps. Ampi Apps is big, Ampi Apps is bold and Ampi Apps is noisy.

Academic writing
The conquest of Italy was certainly not a process of enslavement. It was attacks by their neighbours, or the fear of such attacks, that gave early Rome the pretexts or motives for reducing them to submission; in addition, by confiscating some of their lands, the Romans were able to satisfy the land-hunger of their own peasantry. Despite such confiscations, Roman policy was on the whole conciliatory.

You know, one holiday we actually went to Turkey. Uhm, well this is about twelve, fifteen, twenty years ago now, I suppose.

Personal letter
How are you? I've been trying to get in touch for months, I have written about three letters so far with no replies & guess what, I now know why.
I've been sending them to 72 St Quintins Ave. When did you move? In the letter before last I told you Andy had been made redundant, in the last letter about 5 weeks ago I told you he had a job in Swindon. I don't suppose you ever got them though.

Thank you.
Hello Dublin.
Hello Ireland.
My name is Barack Obama, of the Moneygall Obamas and I've come home to find the apostrophe we lost somewhere along the way.
