Little mistakes: no thanks and there will be lots to eat at the party and shall i come and collect you in the car
- English (US)
It all is good but the last statement. It should be “shall I come and collect you in the car”. Came is past tense but you are asking if you should come in the future.
Another note - this phrase “come and collect you” is British English. In the US we would be more likely to say “Should I come get you” or “should I come pick you up”?
- English (US)
Spell it “thanks” not “thamks”
Change “came” to “come” since came is past tense
And “collect you in the car” is grammatically correct but “shall I come pick you up” sounds more natural
