Template:12 November

12th November 2010: After a hiatus of almost a year, The Joinery reopended under its new management of Nick Tilsley and Leanne Battersby. The previous enterprise, run by Leanne and Peter Barlow, had failed due to the latter's alcoholism. On the (re)opening night, Nick toasted in glowing words the hard work that Leanne had put into the bar. Flattered, she found herself feeling jealous as she watched Nick and Maria Connor together. The opening was a success and Nick and Leanne found themselves alone together in the empty bar afterwards. He told her of his regrets that their teenage marriage had finished and they soon found themselves on the sofa having sex. At the same time, Leanne's partner, Peter Barlow was helping Carla Connor out after she had been arrested for drink-driving and she made a move on him but she pulled away. That night, Leanne was consumed with guilt.
