A major earthquake measuring 5.2 on the Richter scale hit in the early hours of Thursday 27th Feb 2008. Epicentre: Somewhere up north, While in Bentilee Victims were seen wandering around aimlessly muttering "fuckin hell Duck" and "Its bost ma telly" The earthquake decimated the area causing approximately £30.00 worth of damage. Several priceless collections of mementoes from the Balearics, Spanish Costas and Clough Street market were damaged beyond repair. Three areas of historic burnt out cars were disturbed. Many locals were woken well before their giro arrived.
Signal 1 News reported that hundreds of residents were confused and bewildered, still trying to come to terms with the fact that something interesting had happened. One resident - Tracy Sharon Smith, a 15-year-old mother of 5 said "It was such a shock, my little Chardonnay Mercedes came runnin' into my bedroom cryin'. My younges' two, Ashley 'n' Brooklyn, slep' froo it all. I was still shakin' when I was watchin' Kilroy the next mornin'." Apparently though, looting, muggings and car crime did carry on as normal. Rescue workers found one girl in the rubble smothered in blood "Where are you bleeding from?" they asked her. "Bleedin' Bentilee," said the girl "whats that gotta do with it?"
The British Red Cross has so far managed to ship 4,000 crates of Pepsi max to the area to help the stricken locals. Rescue workers are still searching through the rubble and have found large quantities of personal belongings, which include benefit books, jewellery from Elizabeth Duke at Argos and Bone China from Poundland.
HOW CAN YOU HELP This appeal is to raise money for food and clothing, parcels for those unfortunate to be caught up in this disaster. Clothing is most sought after, items most needed include: Fila or Burberry baseball caps, Kappa tracksuit tops (his and hers), shell suits (female), white sport socks, Rockport boots and any other items usually sold in Matalan. Food parcels may be harder to come by, but are needed all the same. Required foodstuffs include Microwave meals, tins of baked beans, ice cream and cans of Special Brew.
22p buys a biro for filling in the compensation forms, 2.00 Pounds buys chips, crisps and Tango drinks for a family of 9, 5.00 pounds will pay for a packet of B&H and a lighter to calm the nerves of those affected.
Please do not send tents for shelter,as the sight of posh housing is unfair on the population of neighbouring areas of Bucknall and longton

Apparently though it is one of the good old biro's that you can take the ink out of, insert a small piece of paper and blow, aiming at somebody's eye !!
