Summary
Weatherfield fun day...
For the sake of this fic, Carla has 3 year old Elsie... Maybe we'll explore how Elsie came about, maybe we won't.
Also we're going to pretend Betsy was younger when Becky died. In this, Betsy is 15.
Carla and Lisa are late 30s and haven't met yet, so none of their story matches the actual show scenes.
At the moment it's probably just a one shot, but I'm open to taking it further and seeing where it goes if people are interested!:)Series
