Partly Facetious: PSL final in Lahore!

01 Mar, 2017

"The Pakistan Super League (PSL) final would be in Lahore....isn't that great. And need I add the final decision was taken, I have it on good authority, by none other than the Prime Minister himself who may attend the match as it would be on a Sunday and Mian sahib is in Lahore on Sundays..."
"You know I was watching a video which stated that President Trump's personal houses are much more luxurious than the White House and he prefers to stay on his estate in Florida, where it's nice and warm and no snow like in DC, rather than in the White House..."
"That's the thing with rich men who win the highest office in the land - and Mian sahib's personal or is it family residence in Raiwind is also much more luxurious than the PM House in Islamabad."
"One difference my friend....the location of the PM House in Islamabad is a hundred times better than Raiwind and I say this in spite of the fact that the Sharif family has made Raiwind more beautiful than nature in that location had allowed for and..."
"Ha ha ha....no Motorways between different Sharif residences in Raiwind that require tree cutting, you know the destruction of the environment and..."
"Don't be facetious."
"I propose that the NHA builds a Motorway between the residence where Maryam Nawaz and her dad stay when in Raiwind and..."
"Stop it....Anyway all decisions that would evoke a positive response with the public are taken by Mian sahib.... a decline in the price of oil, sourced to an international price decline will be announced by Mian sahib, PSL in Lahore requires PM approval though he may not be aware of the security threats."
"No security threats my friend....they will do a shut down..."
"What about loss of productivity with a shut down?"
"Well it's a Sunday right which is a holiday; however Islamabad will be shut for business on 1 March because of the ECO summit and...."
"And the loss to the economy?"
"Minimal after all Dar sahib will be working away and he does all the work anyway?"
"The quality of work..."
"It's the time put in not the output in this country that is important....anyway Lahore has security threats - suicide bombers recently struck Chairing Cross and a gas cylinder exploded in Defence Lahore and the loss of life was as high as that of a mini suicide bomb and...."
"Oh don't be facetious. But speaking of the Lahore venue I think one man came on TV a lot more than the politicians."
"Who?"
"He who shall remain nameless."
"I see; Mian sahib doesn't really like being upstaged and..."
"Without a name how can he upstage anyone!?"
"Don't be facetious.
