Hey, wasn't criticizing you Atarah . was quering the sign. Is it a bar (or arms) belonging to Grant (Grant's Bar) ... is it a bar belonging to someone called Grants (Grants's Bar) .. or a bar that grants you favours. ... LOL.

Or maybe just called Grants. Bar to show what it is and not related to Grants .. bloodyhell, gettin meself in a tangle now.
