New boy blogging . . .

Well, hardly a boy anymore but I'm certainly new to the cobbles of this particular blog and indeed, blogging in general. Please bear with me! I've been interested in all things Corrie since the mid 1970s and so remember the halcyon days of Ena, Elsie and co. I've started a blog of my own (or a rant, depending on my mood) but won't be posting any spoilers or anything which mentions future events. I'll probably moan on about the characters who bug me (step forward Dev and Tracy!) and wax lyrical about people like Connie Rathbone.

I grew up in the market town of Chesterfield but for several years lived on a street that was more than a little similar to Corrie - pub on the corner, shop-cum-post office, nosy old women and, oddly enough, a garage run by a man who used to date Tracy Shaw (Maxine Peacock)!

I'm looking forward to the next few weeks, if not months, in Weatherfield. The trailers shown on ITV1 last night were but a taster of the emotional rollercoaster that is about to, literally, hit the Street. Here we go!
