Hi Goodman,

No, that's a case of two sentences correctly joined by 'and', forming one sentence.

Hi,

As Marius noted, it's Karen's uncle arrives tomorrow she wants to see him. Here, the writer has tried to join two sentences simply by not writing a period. You can't do that.

Best wishes again, Clive
