A politician and his young wife come home to find a grenade in the middle of their living room. Naturally, panic sets in and they go about trying to find out who did it.
The Grenade is well acted, well written, comical and quirky. It makes for a fabulous night at the theatre.

The Barkers Wine Bar and Bistro is the transformed Beehive Hotel. You have the choice of dining in the Wine Bar, the Bistro or the courtyard (in summer). A relaxed and buzzing atmosphere with quality decor, an open kitchen and yet a pub fell remains. The menu is reasonably condensed with something for everyone, from wood fired pizzas at $18.50 to Szechwan spiced crispy duck at $30. There's a tasty range of desserts to choose from.
