Bored of your usual Wednesday-night entertainment? Head to Friend in Hand for something a little different — crab racing. Expect crisp-and-cold schooners of Reschs, Coopers, Young Henrys and Fat Yak whilst you watch an upturned bucket of hermit crabs race to the finish line. They've been doing it every Wednesday night at 8pm for the past 22 years.
