An Eastern Friesland LS version (long and short one):
long: Bīlógen, däi 'k näit ferwachten bün of däi näit ferkloert bünt, mók ik
näit ōpen.
(German based orthography: Bilagen, de 'k neet verwachten bün of de neet
verklaart bünt, maak ik neet open.)
short: Unferwacht of unferkloert bīlógen mók ik näit ōpen.
(German based orthography: Unverwachte of unverklaarte Bilagen maak ik neet
open.)
Nevertheless _bīlógen_ sounds somewhat strange. We could  say _bīpakjes_ or
something like that instead.
Kind regards
Holger
