Fatwax Posted Friday at 02:13 Share Posted Friday at 02:13 There are 7 Emirates in the UAE, with the two most prominent being Abu Dhabi and Dubai. Both have a city within this Emirate with the same name. Abu Dhabi is the capital of the UAE. When the UAE formed in 1972 it was basically 7 families headed by Sheikhs coming together to form the country because before this it was very much broken up. Sheikh Zayed was a key factor in irrigation in the region and as such started the ball rolling on the area being a powerhouse for expats. The speed of growth has been incredible across the country. The rulers of the UAE (based in Abu Dhabi) are direct descendants of Sheikh Zayed. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Everyone going out for drinks after work, everyone stopping by to have a drink during Christmas shopping, and a few matches on TV. I very much doubt it would be the norm, but for Christmas, it’s believable. Didn’t it serve 20,000 pints in its first 24 hours of opening? That is £100,000 at an average price of £5 right there.
