A major earthquake measuring 7.8 on the Richter scale hit Liverpool in the early hours of Thursday 27th Novermber 2003. Casualties were seen wandering aimlessly around, saying "Bang out of order", "no need", and "that did my head in". The earthquake decimated the area causing in excess of £17.55 worth of damage. Several priceless collections of mementos from Tallacre, Blackpool, and New Brighton were damaged beyond repair. Three preserved areas of historic burnt out cars were disturbed, and may have to be taken away. Many locals were in shock at being woken well before thier Giro,s arrived.
The Echo reported thousands of residents were confused and bewildered. They are still trying to come to terms with the fact that the damage and destruction was caused by something else instead of them.
One resident-Tracey Shazza Smith, a 15 year old mother of four, said "Errr, it woz such a shock. Little Chardonnay-Leigh came running through the cardboard door into my bedroom crying. Me youngest two, Tyler-Brooklyn and Kia-Keanu, slept through it all. My hands were shaking so much I could hardly build up when I was watching Trisha."
Another local resident, known as "Kidda", said that the earthquake would not stop him going to work, after all, the burglaries, car theft, and drug deals had to go on.
The British Red Cross has so far managed to ship 4,000 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, which include, benefit books, jewellery from Eliizabeth Dukes, Fine Bone China from PoundStretcher and a large number of Argos catalogues.
However, they were unable to save any furniture higher-purchased from CrazyGeorges.
How can you help?
This appeal hopes to raise money for food and clothing parcells for those unfortunate enough to be caught up in the disaster. Clothing is most sought after. Most needed are Lacoste or Kappa tracksuits(preff 'his n hers'), white socks to tuck their tracksuit bottoms into, Burberry caps, woolly Benny hats, and white Reebok Classic trainers. Mattallan clothing is also most welcome.
Food parcels are also needed. They should include McCains Micro chips, Aldi beans, Monster Munch (pickled onion flavour), Nuttella chocolate spread and iceland pizzas. Alcohol is also in short supply mainly Lambrini, White Lightening Cider, and Carlsberg Special Brew.
Cash donations are also needed:-
22p.. Buys a Bick Biro for signing on purposes.
£1.20.. A Large chip barm, and can of Cherry Coke.
£26.00.. Buys 200 Benson from 'Yoza' who has just got back from a watch buying trip in Lanzorote'
Thanks.........
