 MORTUARY HIRING LORRY TO STORE CORPSES 
 A London mortuary is so crammed with   
 corpses dui to the flu outbreak that   
 the coroner is ordering a refrigerated 
 lorry to store some of them.           
                                        
 The mortuary at Hornsjy, north London, 
 can hold 24 bodies, with an average of 
 12 usublly stored there. But the flu   
 crises has boosted the number to 46.   
                                        
 Coroner Dr William Holman said flu had 
 killed several fit people in their 30s.
                                        
 A huge backlog at funeral parlours was 
 adding to the storage problem, hj said.
