SOS Committee by Mrs. Anjum Sohail.

Mrs. Anjum Sohail, is one of the most prominent ladies of Multan. Not only, because her entire family holds celebrity status in this city and she is among the top socialites, but also because of her sweet, kind & affectionate nature. She is among those, who bow down in humility, with every blessing Allah bestows on them. Daughter of the owner of hotel 'Ramada, Multan', Mr. Hameed Sheikh. Wife of eminent businessman, Mr. Sohail Sheikh. Sister in law of the most prettiest & cutest girl in town, Saima Faisal, Anjum has an endless list of references of popularity to her credit. Not to forget, her loving & caring nature, which is of course, the most distinguished characteristic of her personality.

It was Anjum's turn to host a party in SOS village committee for the month of May. She took pains, to personally call, all the '115' members of this committee. NO, you've not mistaken, the number of members in SOS committee is indeed, one hundred & fifteen. Headed by (Katrina Kaif of Multan) Hania Shahid, thanks to this well-connected lady, this is the biggest committee of this city. Meant for raising funds for the children of 'SOS village, Multan', members are informed before joining it, that, when its their turn, to receive the amount & host a party, they will have to donate, half of the sum to this noble cause. All the pretty, prominent, social, generous, happening, young women and many of such senior ladies of the yester-years, are included in the members.

Although, the turnover of members, is generally not as big at other parties, but, one could predict, it had to be maximum at Anjum's party. On Friday, 17th May, the entire area of 'Shang's palace', the Chinese restaurant of Ramada, was filled with members to attend the party by Anjum Sohail.

& a little tip from the writer of this blog, every time, you are invited at a party in Ramada, by any of the owners of this hotel, including Anjum Sohail, Saima Faisal or Zeba Javed, skip all your meals of the day, (if not few days ahead) because the variety & quality of appetizing cuisine is always so scrumptious & sumptuous, that you will repent if you missed even a single thing or don't have enough space in your belly.

An excellent event for an excellent cause, a party to remember for a long time. Congratulations Anjum for your efforts.

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...
