55 PMA Starlets at a Marriage Reception
Friday, 2 October 2009

The whole 55 PMA Long Course was invited by Ghulam Abbas on the marriage of his daughter it seemed. The beautiful marriage reception was a mini get together for all of us. Marriage celebration was in DeSOM Main Hall – one of the best reception venue in Lahore. I was greeted by 55 PMA starlets (Athar, Khokhar, Sir Shabbir (and his son), Sir Maan, Alizai, Akbar along with his son, Nadir Mir and many more) when I entered the flower laden Hall. Many other followed.

Jalal Bhatti, who happened to be in Lahore, also showed up along with his two sons. I had met Jalah Bhatt after ages and had to update quiet a lot. In between greetings trolls, we talked reached to a conclusion that we have to meet again to update on each other and on some subjects of mutual interests. He too is a blogger and you know what bloggers talk when they meet. Don’t you.

Marriage receptions are traditionally sentimental and emotional occasions, more so for Abbas – a very loving father. I could see Abbas taking care of all the guests while hiding his emotions. The reception went very well. Like always, whenever they are together, officers of 55 PMA and their families look like one big family.

Big congratulations to you Ghulam Abbas and Mrs Ghulam Abbas.

Please take this message of mine as a "BATTLE CRY". Please REUNITE , REUNITE nothing but REUNITE. Let the successes of 55th be shared , please abondon INDIVIDULISTIC stance.Be assured no one else can take away your destiny or fortune even you share these with your brothers in arms.55th lacks this spirit???
