Later on I'll go to sleep and dream of it being tomorrow.

Still got lunch at my sister's in-laws to get through before I can hie me to my humble dwelling

On the plus side, this apparently involves roast beef

Gammon for us tomorrow at my parents.

Unless my granddad is too ill to come home, in which case we'll be eating in the nursing home with him instead.

Ah, I'd forgotten that.

As my sister lives in Manhattan she is even more out of touch with Coronation Street than I am.

She has now returned to the room and will sit there, frequently pointing at the screen saying things like "Who's that?", "He's aged," "So are those two married?" "I thought those two were friends? Why's he doing that?", "I never liked him although he was good in that other programme", "I see they're still in it. How old are they now?", "Why isn't she speaking to him?", "Why's he doing that" (about something that was explained two minutes earlier but which she missed because she was driving me mad with questions).

Ah, here we go:

"Is she supposed to be Sally's kid? How old is she supposed to be? How does she know him? Why are they hiding like that? I thought Sally's kid was called Sarah? Or is that Gail's?"

I only "watch" it when I'm over here, so pretty rare.

I don't ask the questions for two reasons:

1) My father in law will kill me for interrupting the programme
2) I really don't care about it

'He's aged, Jim McDonald."

"Steve McDonald's still losing his hair."

My sister in law bought me a harmonica and teach yourself how to play it kit for Christmas - maybe I should start playing the blues through Corrie and see how long I last.

'He's aged, Jim McDonald."

"Steve McDonald's still losing his hair."

She's not wrong, but who gives a f***????

[TheFaQQer]

Oh dear lord it's tedious.

Commercial break!

Indeed... one can just about accept somebody asking a question if they are having trouble following the plot, but mere statements of the bleeding obvious...

Evening all

In a room with some very noisy and over excited kids playing Mario Olympics on the Nintendo WII - the noise is intense
