Hi Mike,

Like Col I only spent a very short time in Karachi. We drove three coaches through Iran during the Iran Iraq way in 1980 (Plough, Alan McGeechan and ?). We only stayed in a hotel near the airport for the minmum time before the trip I was then on left Karachi. It was bloody hot, and we had problems blowing tyres as we headed north. I didn't see anything of Karachi at all.

Not sure if we missed anything, but at the time we didn't think so.

It was my last trip as I was headed home. Terry Taylor was the courier and he had to leave to go to Delhi with a punter(s?) who didn't have an Indian Visa. They were then issued at the airport but not at Attari Road. I became an instant Courier !!
