Zahra Bassat's lunch.

Zahra Bassat is among the most popular, new generation female socialites, of Multan. She hails from an extremely influential political family & is also married into one. Her mother Mrs. Fauzia Khawar remained the president of APWA for many years. Zahra carries on the legacy of her mother, for having a great group of friends. Her mother-in-law, Mrs. Zahra Abdullah, (the interesting fact is, the mother in-law & daughter in-law, both are name sake. Mrs. Shahida Wadood, a friend of the family, suggested an interesting term, to address both of them, as Zahra A. & Zahra B... A, for Abdullah & B, for Bassat)

On Monday, 30th April, together, both of these ladies arranged a splendid luncheon party at their beautiful home, to entertain their friends from the committee run by Mrs. Nuzhat Ejaz. The party had another partner also, another gorgeous lady of the yester years, Mrs. Iffat Azwar, with her lovely, daughter in law Wajiha Hussnain. The turn over of the members at this party, was amazing & the scrumptious food, heavenly desserts, tasted even better in the relaxed, comforting atmosphere of their palatial residence. Following are the glimpses of their party.

M.G.M. Swimming pool.

View of the domes of MGM bulding from inside the pool. The crystal clear blue water. Chairs lined up for the spectators. Little pool for the toddlers. Summer is finally here, although, the weather still turns unpredictable at times. But still, one feels like taking a dip in the cool, cool water of a crystal clear pool. M.G.M (Multan Garrison Mess. Commonly known among Multanis, by its' old name 'services club'), opens up, pool doors for all its' members every 15th of April. The pool is open air, so it works on seasonal basis. From April to September/ October (if weather allows it). Last year, the pool remained open, only till May, after that, it was shut down for renovations & could not be reopened because of the 'dengue' scare. MGM pool has always been, undoubtedly the biggest & the best in this city, with an excellent filtration plant to boast & an extremely dedicated team of military men as workers, for maintaining th...
