Pubs and restaurants near Murrayfield for pre-Oasis food and drink

The Daily Record has rounded up some of the best scran spots before Oasis. Oasis are set to return to Scotland in just a few weeks. Fans of the iconic band who were able to get tickets will be counting down the second until they perform in the country for the first time in more than 15 years. ‌ Oasis will play a series of three concerts in Edinburgh between August 8 and 12. The group will take to the stage at Murrayfield Stadium. ‌ The Daily Record has already rounded up some of the best last-minute hotels in Edinburgh for Oasis fans who have yet to book accommodation. Now, we are turning our attention to food and drink. ‌ We have compiled a list of some of the best pubs and restaurants that are within walking distance of Murrayfield Stadium for a pre-concert drink or meal. We have also included a customer review for each one from Google, so you know exactly what others are saying. Roseburn Bar The Roseburn Bar is located on Roseburn Terrace, around just nine minutes from Murrayfield Stadium on foot. The traditional bar features comfortable booths along its walls, as well as two separate lounge areas. ‌ The bar offers a wide selection of real ales and lagers, in addition to many other reasonably priced drinks. Its atmosphere is unparalleled when there is a rugby match on at Murrayfield, and it likely won't be any different before the Oasis gigs. What one customer said: "Traditional Scottish pub with a great range of drink and very reasonably priced toasties. Handy for the Haymarket and on the route to Murrayfield." ‌ More information can be found on the Roseburn Bar website. Awaafi Indian Arabic Cuisine In terms of food, one of the top restaurants within walking distance of Murrayfield is Awaafi Indian Arabic Cuisine on Gorgie Road. From the eatery, it is around just 20 minutes on foot to the stadium. Awaafi Indian Arabic Cuisine specialises in authentic Indian and Arabic food. Traditional Indian dishes on offer include Bhuna, Korma, Madras, and Saag Waala, while among the Arabic specials are Tandoori Mandi and Alfahm Rice. ‌ What one customer said: "We had a wonderful dining experience! The food was absolutely delicious—rich in flavor, perfectly cooked, and beautifully presented. Each dish had authentic taste and was served hot and fresh. The portion sizes were generous, and it was great value for money." More information can be found on the Awaafi Indian Arabic Cuisine website. ‌ Athletic Arms Another popular pub in the area is the Athletic Arms on Angle Park Terrace, which is approximately a mile from Murrayfield Stadium. The specialist whisky pub is known by the locals as Diggers, thanks to its historic position between two graveyards. The bar features more than 500 whiskies, as well as 22 taps. It also serves up local award-winning butcher pies, toasties, homemade soup, and sharing plates. What one customer said: "Huge Scotch whiskey collection with over 400 choices including ones from defunct distilleries. Very knowledgeable and nice staff. They also have a couple of private rooms as well as snugs seating against the windows. Very nice." ‌ More information can be found on the Athletic Arms website. The Bothy Murrayfield Finally, if you are looking for another top food venue in the area, The Bothy Murrayfield on Corstorphine Road is a great shout. The restaurant and pub, which is part of the Murrayfield Hotel, is around half a mile from the stadium. The Bothy Murrayfield serves up everything from lazy brunches to cosy candlelit dinners, utilising fresh produce sourced from all over Scotland. Customers can choose from sandwiches, burgers, steaks, and much more. ‌ What one customer said: "We recently had the pleasure of dining at The Bothy, and it was truly an exceptional experience from start to finish. The atmosphere was inviting, the ambiance cozy, and the attention to detail in both the decor and service was impeccable." More information can be found on The Bothy Murrayfield website.

5 reasons to visit Louvre Abu Dhabi this summer

If you're looking for an exciting (and blissfully) air-conditioned thing to do this summer, why not head to Louvre Abu Dhabi? Tucked away on Saadiyat Island and topped with that iconic dome that plays with sunlight like a dream, the museum has lined up some brilliant experiences over the sunny months. From VR time-travel to seeing a historic painting and cosmic fun for the kids, this season is packed with reasons to swing by. Here's why you should book your next outing at Louvre Abu Dhabi. Cheaper tickets for UAE residents First off, there's a handy 30 percent off on online bookings for UAE residents, so tickets worth Dhs65 are now available for Dhs45. That's a decent little bonus for planning ahead. And if you're visiting with kids under 18, even better, there's a cosmic exhibition at the Children's Museum that's completely free for them. VR takes you back in time One of the biggest highlights this summer is the new Quantum Dome Project – a collective VR experience that's like a time machine. This 40-minute adventure lets you journey through Imperial Rome, medieval Baghdad and Mughal India in a race across centuries. Tickets are Dhs95 for Louvre Abu Dhabi's admission tickets holders. It's family-friendly, accessible by wheelchair users and available in Arabic, English and French. On weekdays, the last session kicks off at 6pm, while on weekends, it runs until 8pm. See Una Bulaqueña for the first time in the UAE Art lovers will want to make time for Una Bulaqueña, now on display for a year. Painted by the famed Filipino artist Juan Luna in 1895, this rare masterpiece is on loan from the Philippines and hasn't often been seen outside the country. There are some exciting new arrivals worth checking out as well. From a striking portrait of Kosa Pan, Siam's first ambassador to France, to a dreamy Venetian scene by Canaletto, the latest additions span continents and centuries. There's also a self-portrait by 19th-century French artist Antoinette Haudebourt-Lescot, a bold abstract work by Kandinsky, and a limestone head of a youth from ancient Cyprus. Whatever age of history you want to travel back to, there's plenty to admire on your next visit. Take kids to see a space-themed experience at the Children's Museum There's a must-see space-themed experience called Picturing the Cosmos at Louvre Abu Dhabi's Children's Museum. Spread across three floors, the exhibition invites young minds to think about how different cultures throughout time have viewed the stars, planets and universe. There are plenty of hands-on games and activities to keep them entertained while learning something new (bonus points for that). Go on a Family Treasure Hunt And if you've got young adventurers in tow, don't miss the Family Treasure Hunt. It's a mobile game available in five languages – Arabic, English, French, Chinese and Russian – designed to keep curious minds busy. All you need is your phone. Scan the code, follow the clues, and explore the permanent galleries in a fresh, puzzle-solving way. From Dhs45. Open Tue-Thu, 10am-6.30pm (exhibition), Fri-Sun, 10am-8.30pm. Closed on Mon. Saadiyat Cultural District, Saadiyat Island, .

Who is Constance Marten's evangelical mum Virginie de Selliers and siblings?

Quite possibly. In 2008 — two years after Constance's gap year trip to Nigeria — she enrolled in an undergraduate Arabic course at Leeds University, the chapter in which she featured as Tatler magazine's 'Babe of the Month' and took trips to Nepal and Egypt. After university, she moved to London like the majority of her fellow graduates, working as a researcher for Arabic TV network Al Jazeera and gaining an NCTJ qualification in journalism before enrolling on an acting course at East 15 drama school in Essex. Friends say the young aristocrat was a 'very good actress' and could have gone far, but it was during this time that she started to change. She lost interest in acting and dropped out of the course after a run-in with a course tutor. Around that same time, she began a supposedly turbulent relationship with a man we now know to be Mark Gordon, who she met in an 'Indian shop' selling incense in 2014, and started living with him in Ilford, east London. 'Please respect my decision, I don't want to see any of you any more, please don't try and find me or contact me, thank you, goodbye,' was the rough wording of the text Constance sent friends and family in the summer of 2016. She later claimed in court that she stopped speaking to her family two years before meeting Gordon.
