You mean Callum's scary mates who weren't actually scary, just a bunch of pathetic wasters.
It's easy for you to say that when hiding behind the safety of the computer. But I bet if you had to meet his dangerous mates like Gemma and Macca you'd be bricking it and begging that they should go easy on you.

More than likely I would be splitting my sides laughing at how pathetic they are.

When you block someone The "box" that the posts normally go in are seen as a thin line with the message something like " this post is not visible because the poster is on your ignore list"
To see the post you just have to press the "view post" button and it opens out.
No need to mess around with different browsers at all.

I cant see the point of going online if you dont want to see other people's points of view.
You might as well just talk to yourself.
Ha ha that's true....

Why don't the ladies of coronation street put out a naked calender for charity. They could use the bar stools in the pub to pose in alluring fashion. Bacon strips to be supplied by Roy cafe to cover their essential parts. All monetary proceeds to be used to rehab the onslaught of druggies and slaves. The bacon strips can be donated to Tyrone and fiz. If Liz Mc Muffin is draped in bacon put me down for one.

No. I would prefer to see Anna zipped firmly up to the neck in her grubby coat.

The cannabis isn't a SOR and originally no one said it was. The issue was whether an ambulance should have been called to the factory when Izzy was knocked out of her wheelchair. The opinion was that if they had called an ambulance then the pain SL might not have happened as she would have had some treatment.

But as usual this has been ignored with someone not understanding the point that was made. It's now such a regular occurrence on this thread, there ought to be 'Misunderstanding the Point' thread or a 'Getting the Wrong End of the Stick' thread.
I wasn't referring to the wheelchair incident, I was referring to the comments that suggested Izzy should just have visited her GP, and would not have gone in search of cannabis.

Ironically, in view of your unpleasant post, you have misunderstood me.

But the point was Izzy said she hadn't been to see her GP, so she didn't even know if her GP could have helped her with her pain management or not, why would someone who had never used cannabis before suddenly decide too before even knowing there was no alternative?

Why stop at her neck? Zip it up over the top of her head and seal it with something airtight and waterproof. Chucking her in the canal like that is an option that would appeal to me.

I don't know if it has been mentioned, but how did Izzy come to fall out of her chair? It looks a hefty bit of kit, not exactly like it would have been toppled easily by Marta.

Because it was required by the scriptwriters for her to have a fall which would increase the amount of pain she was in so much that she needs to take cannabis that is how and why it happened.

I wonder if cannabis will help alleviate the pain inflicted by the scripwriters with their rubbish writing

The cannabis plot will be forgotten soon anyway.
Spoiler
which means more face pulling and whizzing around the factory floor with her head down looking ashamed. She'll go and see a doctor to discuss it, the doctor will give some advice on better ways to get pain relief, then a couple of episodes later Izzy's pain will be gone and she'll be back to normal.

I preferred it when they did the story with the oldies at the One O'Clock club dealing Marijuana Brownies and Sylvia and Dennis getting high. At least it was amusing.

Take that back. That's my Anna you're talking about. With her milk white skin and voluptuous hair and a face lit up like a county fair. I would strangle my mother just to unzip her coat. It would reveal a shapely body as hard as Pennsylvania steel, aqquired in the gym under the expertise of her personal trainers Gary and zeedan. Her undergarments would only be the finest the knicker stitchers of underworld could produce. I can only dream of her whispering in my ear in her dulcet tone" how about a fry up love". Yes sir, strangle my mother so I would.

whilst we are on the subject of Izzy was there a fallout from her nicking the money, i think it was her but i don't remember whose money she nicked or have i got that SL confused with Sonia from EE?

Probably not, characters in corrie very rarely seem to know or use the word sorry

No, I don't think we've seen anything of her since she spooked Sally a few eps back, saying Sally should watch her step.

Don't know if that was laying the foundations of a new Jenny-on-Sally campaign of terror sl, or just Jenny using her krazy lady status to get Sally off her case.

Probably the former, as nothing's ever wasted in Corrie!

Corrie have a look for their characters and never seem to change it. The character must look the same at all times. Michelle is definitely a very noticeable one. Those ridiculous eyeliner flicks at the corners of her eyes disappeared recently. Oh, for the days of Bet with her pot of tea, bits of toast, rollers in, fag on the go, putting her face on in the Rovers back room!

Sorry for the separate post but I can't seem to get the multiple quote thing working!
One of my favourite Corrie scenes ever:

https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=1AbzxIH5NL0

Imagine recreating this scene with Michelle or Liz.

Thanks, I hadn't known that. If this FM comes on again I'll mention it to him.

I don't know if it has been mentioned, but how did Izzy come to fall out of her chair? It looks a hefty bit of kit, not exactly like it would have been toppled easily by Marta.
It seemed to me that Izzy started falling out the chair before Marta even came through the door.
