We’ve just been advised that the wedding we were going to in Pakistan has had to be postponed. The father of the bride is in critical condition in hospital in Karachi and with the wedding only 3 weeks away, it was decided that a postponement would be the best course to take given the circumstances. As sad as it is to not be able to go to Pakistan this month for a week of wedding celebrations, we know it’s the only decision that could have been taken. We wish the family all the very best for a speedy recovery, and hopefully we’ll still be able to play a role when the wedding is rescheduled later in the year…..

We’ve got all the gear, the right books, our malaria pills and a visa so we certainly won’t be giving up on the idea of going to Pakistan provided we’re still invited.

In fact, if we can’t claim the flight cancellation on our insurance – we may very well end up going anyway!
