You've been out of Yorkshire too long. Buy some smaller glasses!

Our lads prefer pint cans over little 'uns so a bit of a pain.

AAMOI, do they host and provide the same?

If not, give your inner Yorkshireman some CPR!

Pints get warm too quickly, thats why the Spanish drink cañas, it's only the English that drink pints. The best way is to copy the Aussies, cold can in a beer cozy, it keeps a cold beer cold the longest.

I have loads of pint glasses in the bar fridge
The BBQs are in the cooler evenings.

I drink 400ml beers in daytime to keep cool.

So Heineken do cans in 330ml, 400ml and 500ml?

On my recent visit to Corfu, I noticed that in pretty much all the bars a 'large' beer was 400ml.

Koozie.

The only method I've ever seen Aussies use to stop beer warming up is to neck it as quickly as possible after it comes out of the cool box.

At least you've got a new pet you can replace the cat with.
