Talk of importing sand, and making a beach at the sailing club, and even building a pier there, with trendy cafés, I personally feel is a little premature.
Apparently the residence isn't too far from where the last Conservative candidate, poor James Mawdsley 'lived'.
Perhaps she's just taken over his lease, or perhaps there's just an empty house in Rishton, kept especially for election times, for any visitor from outside the area who decides to stand in the election, and who need a place to rest their weary head, after a hard day's campaining.
Of course all this giddy gossip in Riston might prove to be just rumour, and wishful thinking, because as far as I'm aware no one has actually seen Ms. Buckley putting out the milk bottles on her front step, or hanging out her washing on the line.
Watch this space.

The village has come to life in a heady display of wilful exuberance, pockets are filled with coins and promisary notes as the shops sound the clarion call........OK, nobody knows about it.
We 'found out' a couple of days ago and, although nothing has actually been confirmed, it is understood that she is living in a rental property about 200 yards from my house. I don't have her alleged address or I'd pop round to wish her luck and I mean that sincerely as no one from her own party seems to be at all supportive.
