Keep a bottle of water with you all day and just keep sipping it throughout the day (and refilling where possible too obviously).

Eat light, wear light and take it as easy as poss. Go get some ice cream/lollies too!

Run your wrists under a cold tap, it will cool your blood and cool you down.

followed your advice a bit now too LT, i am drinking warm tea

apparently i also read something like that online, warm drinks are better with warm weather which gives your body the feeling it must cool down, rather with cool drinks your body then gets feeling it must make itself warm again
