Flaming Nora asks Corrie fans to support Cancer Research UK

This is a tricky blog post to write because I've never used the Coronation Street Blog for anything more personal than offering my opinions on Gail Platt's hair (always messy) or Rita's latest musings (always fab).  However, sometimes something happens in your life that makes you want to do as much as you can to help.

What I'd like from our readers, please, is for you to sponsor my teenage niece, Claire. She's doing a sponsored walk on November 28th to raise funds for Cancer Research UK.  Without sounding mawkish, I know times are hard, but anything you can spare to support her and this wonderful charity would be most gratefully appreciated.

Claire is a huge Corrie fan - everyone in our family is!  Her favourite character is Graeme Proctor and his amazing range of weird and wonderful hats and her favourite storyline was the David and Tina abortion storyline. She says her favourite line came from David the other week when he said about how it was okay for Gail to tell Nick about Natasha's abortion, yet at the time of Tina's abortion, she never told him that Tina had one.
