Clutching these we hit the bar. Only to be told that the offer was available from midday until 1pm only - we missed it by 15 minutes.

No matter we said, three can's of Guinness for the day that's in it.

No stout left said the barman.

Hmm, in that case how about three cokes we said.

No soft drinks the barman proudly announced.

Time to go look at the gee gee's.
