Quite impressive that Tracy can order a sign on Easter Monday morning and it is made and delivered by what I am assuming lunchtime on the same day!! Are we going to find out what she was calling the bistro on the new sign, as the men didn't get a chance to put it up?

Where else on earth can you order a large bespoke sign AT EASTER, and have it delivered and halfway up the wall within hours?



Edit
Sorry, you beat me to it by a minute.

'I deserve a bit of me time', says harried Businesswoman of the Year Michelle. Having just returned from a long weekend in Spain, prior to which she was last seen necking a glass of red with Carla in the middle of the afternoon.
and Carluh whinging about their need to 'catch up' when they've been apart for about three days.

1. How long can Corrie drag out this tedious Tracy v Carla spat? Lies covering more lies. Dull and repetitive.

2. Can the writers please sort Tracy's character out. She's turned into a clapped-out bitch, who hardly shows any signs of remorse or human qualities that even the most ardent 'villians' have. She's best when she's with Amy, not when she winds up Carla Barla. And she had that slap coming, but she continues to deceive to her partner. They've run out of material to give her, so axe or humanise.

3. Michelle's got a storyline (hooray!), but it's about a former flame (boo!). And highly predictable. They'll rekindle over lost time, she'll be tempted to cheat (but won't because she's a strong-willed woman, who loves Steve very much), Liz, Sean or Kate will assume there is something going on and a blazing row occurs. Michelle'll run off to Will for comfort, and it can go either way. Steve will return at this point.

Sarah seems to have been in hospital for ever. I know she had a cesarean but so did a friend of mine and she was out in 24 hours even after it all being traumatic.

Would they not want the bed and private (naturally) room empty by now.
Also why is she still wearing a nightie and dressing gown? She's not ill and bed-ridden. Surely someone could have brought in some clothes for her to put on during the day.

A former flame who's about to marry someone else but now he's seen our Michelle...... Well, Steve's lucky to have her. So he'll be tempted and if 3 businesses Michelle can spare the time, so will she. She'll get dolled up: tits and arse out. Everyone will salivate. Michelle will be told how lovely she is. But that's as far as it will go. End of. Steve will return. Normal service will be resumed.

Fully qualified master builder/construction expert/electrical specialist and removing paint from surfaces professional Jason tells David it won't take him more than about 2 hours to fix his kitchen covered in paint all it needs is a few new unit doors. Why fit new doors when the paint can be removed with a little work without the need for new doors, new doors won't fix the paint daubed automatic washer or the worktop ends.

The Carla/Nick/Tracy/Robert story?, OMG please stop with it. >> http://bit.ly/1ohFHhx <<

When did Michelle have time to be "pretty full on for a while" with the schoolboy boyfriend when she gave birth to Wotsit at fifteen? Why didnt she take Amy with her to Spain? Why did only Steve send his love to Liz, and why didnt Liz ask about Andy?
Why was everybody working as normal on Easter Monday, Even the factory?
Why does Eileen get tiny boxes of soap powder instead of the giant ones she needs?
Is Eileen really supposed to be so vile that she slags off her own son to her five minute boyfriend? What mother does that?

Brian was Sarah's Dad / Bethany & Harry's granddad,
Martin was Sarah's step dad who was around when Bethany was little so she'd remember him

In all seriousness
Baby was 5 weeks early and she had a previous neo natal death so hospital are being cautious
I was in hospital for 7 days after my LO was born and to be honest I was happy in my sloppy joes for that time esp as a bit sore.

I thought Martin had adopted Nick and Sarah? hence all the rubbish about Nick having to change his name back to Tilsley to inherit Ivy's estate?

Admittedly that was years ago so may have misremembered

You remembered right, Fayemian. Unfortunately, Liverpool is three thousand miles away from Manchester so visiting is difficult for Martin.

While Robert has a long talk with Tracy he forgets there are customers probably waiting for food.

And David, Martin's actual biological child, I believe has only visited his father in this far away land called Liverpool only once in the 10 years since he moved there

Wonder if we'll be reminded of Dean, the "love of her life". ¬___¬

She must've matured really quickly to have a fling with Alex, and then have a child.

The actor is 44, Nick's age is accurate.
So why do they make him up to look 55?

You would have to be there to understand.

And then you might hold the commonly held opinion that he is a miserable sod.
How far does "commonly" stretch? I'd have thought, from what you said, it was a maximum of the number of regulars at one pub.

..............I was in hospital for 7 days after my LO was born and to be honest I was happy in my sloppy joes for that time esp as a bit sore.
LO : is that one of those mumsnest things, like DH and DD?

Sarah isn't the one with the infection, why does Harry having one mean that she can keep her hospital bed? It's been a week now and apart from being tired there's nothing wrong with her health.

I don't fully concentrate on Corrie these days so this is a bit vague.

Did Michelle get involved with another bridegroom-to-be a while back? Or was that to do with some other party she was planning? I think the guy was the actor who played Abs in Casualty but I may be wrong.

That was last year. This is another bloke but it will be much the same. Tits and arse flashing. Then back to Steve.
