I ask nicely for corrections It is a notice to my friend: Hello Tom, Yesterday I was drinking coffee in front of the laptop you borrowed me the other day. I had put the glass beside and then, when I was trying to reach my notebook I accidentally caught my hand on it and spilt all over the laptop. I am terribly sorry. I promise I will pay you back for the computer. Also sorry about not having told you that earlier, but I tried to bring the laptop to repair first, but they said it was completely flooded and thus unfixable. Let me know.

I ask nicely for corrections    Would anyone be kind enough to help me correct my writing?

It is a notice to my friend:

Hello Tom,

Yesterday I was drinking coffee in front of the laptop you lent me the other day. I had put the glass aside, but then, when I was trying to reach my notebook, I accidentally caught my hand on it and spilt it all over the laptop.

I am terribly sorry. I promise I will pay you back for the computer. I am also sorry about not having told you that earlier, but I tried to repair the laptop  first, but they said it was completely saturated and thus unfixable.

Let me know if that's alright.


>>>> You borrow FROM someone or lend TO them

>>>> flood is for a bigger space. A house, a field, a room can be flooded, but if too much liquid has gone into an item then it is saturated

Excellent! Just stick to using one conjunction per sentence. (But) very well done!
