White Angel's party by friends of SOS.

The White Angels together.

Summers are almost over and so are summer vacations. All the Multani-ites, who fled to hill stations or countries abroad, to take refuge from the seasonal heat, returned at the end of August, because the vacations ended. Which ultimately brightened the social scene in the city in September.

Friends of SOS, also got reunited after a break of two months, over a hi-tea at Ramada by Romana Ahmed, Shumaila, Mrs. Iqbal Khakwani, Asiya Mahay, Maria, Zeb Khan, Saira, Sara, Hina, Madeeha and Amra.

Living upto the traditions of this committee group, another unique theme awaited the members. White Angel, was the desired look. Ladies were requested to appear, wearing White to compliment the theme. The response was amazing. Most of the angels, embraced the idea with open wings and flew, floating in the party, all draped in White. A treat for the sight indeed.

There were games for entertainment of the guests and surprise gifts for the participants . The prize for the most well dressed lady, went to Mehreen Buccha. Whereas, Anjum Sohail was acknowledged as the most punctual of them all. Romana Ahmed, gave away the prizes.

As, Eid-Qurban (Annual Islamic ritual of animal sacrifices at the time of Hajj) is approaching. All the friends of SOS, were requested to donate, hides of their sacrificial animals to SOS Children's village. Those present at the occasion were also provided big shoppers for the purpose. A reminder that they should not forget these under privileged children at the village, who look forward to the community for love and care, at events like eids, etc.

And here is a request or all the visitors/ readers of this blog. Kindly, donate whatever you can for SOS Children's village, Multan and the skins/hides of animals for eid-e-qurban is a great way to begin with. This is one place, where you can see the living charity, happening infront of your eyes. This is one place, where no terrorists are raised but a great future for the society is being nurtured. Always, remember SOS children's village Multan for your contributions. And dump the skins at any 'collection point' by SOS village point near you.

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...
