Template:1 January

1st January 1990: A new year, and a new start, especially for the Barlows in the wake of Ken's affair with Wendy Crozier. Deirdre had been patient with Ken over Christmas - perhaps more than he deserved - as he promised to sort things out, but when he returned home after midnight having spent the evening with Wendy, a tearful Deirdre told him that if he couldn't decide between his wife and his lover, she'd do it for him - and she threw him out of the house, their marriage over after more than eight years.
