I am a computer programmer, living in Nova
Scotia, Canada. I've had the priviledge of meeting quite a few #coro members
in real life at pings, both locally and at several i've been able to attend
in Ottawa and Toronto (so far!). I won't say corrie is my life LOL but
it's opened up great opportunities and new friendships for me! I do part
time duty as an episode updater, writing two a week of the episodes that
air on Canada's WTN network (Classic corrie from the early 90's). I have
seen older episodes of Corrie, mostly by video and have read the history
of the show in various books and web sites! But i'm not obsessed.... noooo.
(p.s. I also like American soaps Gasp!)
Other hobbies include cross stitching, reading,
working out, travel and photography. But let's get back to all things

watched the show and also opinions delved from research and videos...
