Dear Auntie and Uncle,
I'm sorry we won't be coming to your Golden Wedding celebration in April. We did try to find flights from the south of England to anywhere in Scotland - and with three months to go we thought we might get flights at a reasonable price.
However, the cheapest available return flight on those dates was more expensive than a week's all-inclusive cruise in the Mediterranean. And it would have involved a stopover in Belfast and a three-hour stop in Manchester.
Lots of love,
Christine

Why not drive? It is their golden wedding anniversary after all...

Not sure my old jalopy would make it! And with no time off work it'd be a case of drive 12 hours, eat dinner, drive 12 hours home. Too old and tired for that kind of mallarkey!
