Dear Friends,

I hope you are all doing well. I am writing to inform you I will not be able to join you on our planned weekend holiday. I have an important exam scheduled for the same weekend, which cannot afford to miss due to its significance in my academic progress.

I want to sincerely apologize for this sudden change in plans and for any inconvenience my absence may cause. I was really looking forward to spending this time with all of you and creating some wonderful memories together. Unfortunately, I would be unable to join you because of my studies.

I would like to suggest an alternative plan that we can all enjoy together. we arranage a day trip to the nearby Amritsar in the following weekend. We will go to the Mall, roam to the local street, and also go the Golden Temple which is quite mesmerising. This way, we can still spend quakity time together and have fun.

warm regards,
