i love seeing you. i'm sorry i haven't organised things - we kept meaning to come to Edinburgh this year, but totally failed (bought at house instead).

i know i don't call or message much, but i promise it's not you, it's me not using such things very often.

do you have a landline at all? i could call you more easily then...

but anyway, you are always welcome to stay with us. and i will try and manage to travel to you at some point in the new year. or perhaps you will come live in london.
