The Anchorman does it in style…

The Sri Lanka Anchorman is an English monthly tabloid very popular with the Sri Lankans, living in Toronto, Canada; and what makes this tabloid extra special is that its Founder, Publisher and Editor-in-Chief is a well-known journalist, from Sri Lanka – Dirk Tissera.

Dirk and his wife, Michelle, have always given their readers the very best of everything, not only with news, hot off the press, but also the opportunity for The Sri Lanka Anchorman readers to meet up and to get to know their countrymen, now domiciled in Canada, especially in Toronto.

Their most recent get-together event was The ANCHORMAN’s May Spring Ball Gala Dinner Dance, held at the J & J Banquet Hall, Markham.

Reports coming our way indicate that the dance was well attended, with 320 guests enjoying a fabulous evening and dancing their hearts out to singing sensation Fahmy Nazick who belted out many memorable hits. His rendition of ‘Unchained Melody’ was just fantastic, according to guests.

Fahmy was performing for the first time in Toronto, Canada, and he literally brought the roof down, they say.

Also adding glamour to the event was the band Black Jacks, saxophonist Mayuran and DJ Chami.

The bouquets that Dirk and Michelle received from those present are a clear indication that The ANCHORMAN’s May Spring Ball Gala Dinner Dance was a fun-filled evening, that included baila competitions, door prizes and, of course, a sumptuous dinner.
