It's a pity that the former Group Treasurer of a well-known Dubai government entity isn't a member of The Bored. He'd be able to give us some spine-chilling insights into all of this........... ;)

Re: Projects that never were
I buy diet coke in most places....?
It's the small mosque shops that are the most unpredictable and less likely to have diet coke. As for the popularity of pepsi, apparently it goes back to that the first coke bottling plant in the ME was in Israel and Pepsi was in Saudi.....

Re: Projects that never were
Did that dinosaur theme park thingy ever get off the ground? Dubai Golf City is another one. Over 500 villas and multistorey apartment towers were to be built. The showroom containing a room-sized model of the complex is still there but nothing else.
