Make it down to the office this Friday?
Hi
Could you please tell me if these sentences sound natural to your native ears, especially the yellow parts? Any suggestions are welcome.
[secretary to candidate on phone]
Would it be possible for you to make it down to the office this Friday morning?
[Candidate to secretary on phone]
Can I call you while I am coming to the office to direct the driver about the address?
[secretary to candidate on phone]
So, I am putting you in for the interview at 10. Will that be fine?
Many thanks,
Tom
