Ladies club (Re-opening after vacations) 6th Sept.

September 2012, remained a great month for partying in the city of saints. The reason, no posts appeared on this blog, during this month is; while the city was full of life and activities, the author of the blog (my humble self, of course) was out, touring United States. My sincere apology to those, who visited this blog in quest of something new but were disappointed. And a promise, this month is not going to be spared. We already have some data about few of the events, which took place during this month and our updates begin for you, with this post right now.

After summer vacations, according to the tradition, 'Ladies club, Multan', re-opened doors of activities for all its members. On 6th September, a day, which is also celebrated as 'defence day' (reminder of the war of 1965 ). The first party of the season was arranged by the group of Mrs. Naseem Raheem, her daughter in-law Farrah Saqib, along with senior memebers, the Khwaja sisters, Mrs. Farah Ilyas, Mrs. Ayesha Abdullah, Miss Shamsa Khwaja & Mrs. Rabia Bosan. Forgive me, if I have forgotten any names of the members.

The striking element of the event was, Mrs. Naseem Raheem (the head of this group) is among few of the most creative women of this city. Whenever, it is the turn of her group to host a party, people expect a lot. Her group always provided the most entertaining events, like variety programs, bassants, etc. And this time, she had also promised a function of a similar kind, with lots of excitements. But unfortunately, due to some difficulties, only dinner could be hosted. Mrs. Raheem went to the rostrum and apologized for being unable to produce any fun activity. Anyway, the guests and rest of the members were not ready to give up. Mrs. Tahira Najam (the literary secretary of the club) reached out to the stage and invited ladies to make speeches about 'defence day'. Many of the members contributed and saved the occasion from turning out to be a disappointment.

At the end, the dinner was served. And as Shakespeare said, ' all is well, when the end is well'.

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...
