UKAP

UKAP?.. That's the United Kingdom Association of Pakistan for those of you who don't already know. Basically it's an Association for UK Expats in Pakistan. It was originally formed for support reasons back in the pre Independence era. Helping distressed Expats etc. More recently it declined with so many Expats departing etc. so it almost became almost defunct. However in the last 18 months it is having something of a sort of revival. An example of which was our get together tonight. About 24 of us. Mixture fo Expats and Locals having a bit of a geathering. Idea was to meet up and play games of trivial persuits and so forth. Lots of fun and it was held in Matthews house.
This event of course was on at the same time as the 1st of the 6 Nations Matches. Well it would be !! Sods law. Including England verses Wales. I missed the rugby not because of the function, but becasue it was not even on the local TV. Real bummer. But WALES did win. So there is a happy very ending!!!! First time since 1988. So a great win. Well done lads.
Oh and yes, it was a good, and, very successful games evening as well.
