well you said you wanted 'action' and pretty soon you'll be getting lots of 'action.' well first of all, karl as you know is up to his eyes in debt because of his gambling and he sets about trying to get himself out of trouble only to make things even worse by staging a fake robbery at the pub and takes all the money out of the safe. he tries to double his money by gambling only to lose the lot. needless to say, stella is not a happy bunny and therefore throws him out once she learns the truth. he then ends up with sunita and they are almost caught out when stella calls round to the alahan's house. then after karl has bolted, dev and the kids return home to be reunited with a guilty sunita. meanwhile over at the salon... david and kylie decide to take control of the salon by getting all the locks changed again and putting up a sign saying 'under new management.' audrey is naturally flabergasted by all this and is left with no choice but to use mary's mobile home as a makeshift salon but then trouble flares again when emily turns up to get her hair done and is caught between david and audrey who are both pulling at her in the street. later david and kylie get the police involved as audrey starts getting angry by their antics and she then accidently knocks a police officer over and is then arrested! oh deary me... and while all this is going on... over at the barlows... well peter and leanne start talking about access to simon etc and then when simon overhears leanne calling carla 'the black widow,' he then uses those words himself while talking to peter and then peter bans leanne from seeing simon. ken then sees how much simon is missing seeing leanne and goes behind peter's back and allows leanne the chance to see simon... well you said you were getting bored with the same old storylines and now you are getting some 'action.' hope this will keep you happy for the next week or so. also over at the factory, sally ends up becoming a partner in the factory with carla, and while sally starts working in the office, michelle finds out and is not very happy at all. could this be more action to come?... we'll have to wait and see... hehehehe... hope you enjoy reading all this
