    Well, if there's one good thing about being in the Speaker's constituency Woohoo it's that we can't be held responsible for all of this.

    Woohoo

    I thought you might live in the tower. I always mix Brindle up with Brinscall. It's the one with the woods and the lake I was thinking about.
    Don't really know Brinscall that well, driven through it, seems nice enough. Hoghton Tower is situated between two nice pubs, this time next year rodders.

    What, was the BP too moderate for them?

    Old Greg I think Mark BREXIT SMITH is missing a trick. He should have changed his name by deed poll to Mark BOYCOTT IR35 instead to win the contractor vote. He'd have won a two seat majority after a turn out of two. No one seems interested and my wife was very confused when I explained that Lindsay is no longer labour. She's a nurse so he used to be her natural bed partner.
    Brindle has slightly higher house prices than Hoghton. You have to drive by a sign saying Brindle to get to my house, which is annoying as my postcode is classed as Hoghton.

    Euxton is nice, went out with a girl that lived there.

    I could be casting the deciding vote in the General Election. Who should I vote for? My options on the ballot paper are:

    BREXIT-SMITH, Mark - Independent
    HOYLE, Lindsay Harvey - The Speaker seeking re-election
    MELLING, James Fletcher - Green Party
    Brexit-Smith would be best suited to a cretin like you.

    Ridiculous convention, which I'm guessing is why some candidates ignore it.

    Must be grim in Chorley with such a limited choice & not even a Monster Raving Loony Party candidate
