There's a storm blowing in Finglas and it soon claims its first victim when the pipes in Winnie and Sharon's house burst.

Further details

There's a storm blowing in Finglas and it soon claims its first victim when the pipes in Winnie and Sharon's house burst. Thank goodness therefore for Mrs Brown who is on hand to offer a roof over their heads while repairs are carried out.

However, it's not long before there's a storm brewing in the Brown household too, when Agnes and Cathy discover living with best friends isn't the picnic they'd imagined. And Agnes has yet more on her plate when she receives the news of the death of Nelly Scullie, a neighbour she never knew - or liked - and is asked by Father Damian to do her eulogy.

Plus, there's Bono's thirteenth birthday to host. It might all seem too much for Agnes, until Buster drops a bombshell...
