one of those small tornados hit Coronation Street - think this was the first one to hit the north and caused devastation - but the worst damage was to the new build - it came tumbling down - says a lot for the builders they employed (half did not understand english) perhaps the mortar mix was wrong - however

Just as they reached the front door, a pair of knickers were carried along the path by the wind, yes these were literally flying out of the factory, or off someones clothes line! "I wonder who they belong to, they look too small to be Janices, too bad they've forecast snow for tomorrow" said Rita with a laugh!

"Come on Rita, I'll take you back to my place and make you a nice hot cup of tea with plenty of sugar, that'll help you get over the shock."

"oh my giddy aunts" cried Rita, "what has the place come to. The street has never been like this, what with cowboy builders, teenage tearaways, fires, loud women eating kebabs, its just like an episode from a TV soap. I don't think i will ever recover from this trauma."

Ken picked Rita up from his feet and calmly said

that Janice was downing more beer and munching her way through yet another kebab!!! Norris meanwhile was at the hospital where it transpired he had broken his ankle and was looking for names of solicitors so he could sue the builders. All plastered up and with a pair of crutches he limped out of Weatherfield General, which was half empty since Martin Platt had left. He hailed a passing taxi and was soon back at the Kabin - well what was left of it shall we say. He was moritifed realising he was the cause of the fire and fell to the floor breaking his arm this time. People kept stepping over him to get a good look at the firemen in action when all of a sudden

what on earth was going on here? First the bistro and now the Kabin - did Leanne do that? He shut his mouth, which was good for all concerned, cos nothing much comes out of it anyway, and went to see Janice "Big Gob" Battersby to see if she knew what was going on. Janice was with her boring fella who didn't seem bothered much that

went straight to the bookies and arrested the young guy who can't act very well. Leanne had given them a tip off, she had decided over night that Paul was the one for her after all, after she had seen him in his vest and pants!

Paul was stood in the street mouth wide open

you probably know me, I'm rather famous!! Please can you call an ambulance - have a feeling I've broken something - meanwhile the Kabin was beginning to smoulder but Norris had forgotten all about the chip pan and Rita and Emily were already in the charity shops looking for new gear. The ambulance came and

any passing tourist who happen to wander around the street looking in peoples windows like its some type of film set! The good people of the street are frankly a bit annoyed about this. Do these people not know Coronation Street is a real place????

Anyway, Norris grabbed one of the passers by and said
