good news and bad news

[Chris Mad dog]

As a lot of you know Christine my wife has been trapped by Indian bureaucracy in England for 15 months. I have remained here to look after Gita and the house. Christine has had to rent a flat to live in. Over this 15 months paying for two lots of rent food electricity et cetera on one pension has been almost impossible. It has been a hard time for us during which we borrowed money from friends and the bank to survive and to pay for airfare and visa costs. We have debts in excess of 5 lakh. I would very very much like to attend bulletiapa but I simply cannot afford to. I feel repaying those that helped us is the honorable thing to do. So I am very sorry I won't be seeing my Bro's this year which is a shame because I have never been north towards the mountains. I hope you have a fantastic time somebody raise a glass to me and Christine reunited at home here in India.
