Speaking of staying cool out here. Back when they introduced Murphy's in Bahrain (early 90's), they had a special promotion in which you were givena card and you would get a stamp for drinking a pint of the stuff in a different bar. Once you filled in and returned the card, you would be given a t-shirt with the Murphy's logo. I guess the anticipated timeframe for the exercise was a week or more.
Well, as it was a hot July wednesday evening, we decided to give it a go. At the end of the night, we ended up at a bar with a Phillipino band, not with one but two completed cards each.
