Liverpool Earthquake Appeal


Liverpool Needs You


An earthquake measuring 7.8 on the Richter scale hit Liverpool yesterday morning. The epicentre was Huyton. Casualties were seen wandering aimlessly saying "bang out of order", "mental" and "that did my head in".


The earthquake decimated the area causing in excess of £55 worth of damage. Several priceless collections of mementos from Ibiza and Corfu were damaged beyond repair.


Three preserved areas of historic burned out cars were destroyed. Many locals were woken before their Giro's arrived.


One resident, Tracey Sharon Smith, a 15 year old mother of four said "It was such a shock, little Chardonnay-Leigh came running into my bedroom crying and my hands were shaking that much that I could hardly skin-up whilst I was watching Trisha".


The British Red Cross has so far managed to send 4000 crates of Sunny Delight to the area to help with the crisis. Rescue workers are still searching through the rubble and have found large quantities of personal belongings including jewellery from Elizabeth Duke, benefit books, bone china from Poundstretcher and a number of Argos catalogues. Sadly, however they have not managed to save any furniture from Crazy George's as yet.


How can you help?


This appeal hopes to raise money for food and clothing parcels for those unfortunate enough to be caught up in the disaster. Clothing is most sought after. Urgently needed are LaCoste tracksuits (his & hers preferably) white socks, Burberry caps, woolly Benny hats, and Reebok trainers. Food parcels are also needed. They include McCain's Micro-Chips, Aldi Beans, Monster Munch, and Iceland pizzas. Alcohol is also in short supply, especially White Lightning Cider and Carlsberg Special Brew.


Cash donations are also needed. 22p buys a Bic biro for signing on, £2.50 buys cheese and chips, £5 buys cheesy wotsits and blue pop for a family of four and £25 buys 200 Regal from Tommo who has just got back from Crete.

Erm.... yeah.


Actually there's a story behind that.  It ain't very interesting, but I'll tell it anyway cos, let's face it, you're a captive audience.


Vic had this story by email at work, but her firewall wouldn't let her send it home.  So she printed it for me, and when I'd finished chuckling I went online to try and find it.  Unfortunately, the only one I could (be arsed to) find was about Newcastle instead of Liverpool.  So I thought I'd be clever and change Newcastle to Liverpool, as in Vic's e-mail cos I fort it was funnier.  Mostly because of you and my Mum!


Shame it didn't work.  I've fixed it now, though.

Mmm, you got me there!  Is there a Charlotte's Way?  Do the numbers really go up that high?  Does Crazy George's really exist?  And how would you know anyway?

Ahh, I know the place now, they specialise in letting people pay weekly, directly out of their dole money at about 70% APR!


 


(Note incase of googlers on the lookout for libel action:  The above in no way represents the opinion of the JDBB or any of it's members, including me.  Really, I don't know how it got there)
