MANCHESTER EARTHQUAKE APPEAL FUND
A major earthquake measuring 3.9 on the richter scale, hit on Monday
21 October 2002. It epicentered on Beswick, Manchester.
Victims can be seen wandering aimlessly muttering : "Sorted", 'Top'
and 'Arr Kid' . The Earthquake decimated the area, causing
approximately £30 worth of damage. Several priceless collections of
mementos from the Balearics and Spanish costas were damaged. Three
areas of historic and scientifically significant litter were
disturbed. Many were woken well before their giro arrived. Thousands
are confused and bewildered, trying to come to terms with the fact
that something interesting has happened in Manchester.
One resident, Donna-Marie Dutton, a 17 year old mother-of-three said
"It was such a shock, little Chantal-Leanne came running into my
bedroom crying. My youngest two, Tyler-Morgan and Megan-Storm slept
through it. I was still shaking when I was watching Trisha this
morning."
Apparently though, looting did carry on as normal.
The British Red Cross have so far managed to ship 4000 crates of
Sunny Delight to the area to help the stricken masses. Rescue
workers are still searching through the rubble and have found large
quantities of personal belongings including benefit books and
jewellery from Elizabeth Duke at Argos.
* HOW YOU CAN HELP
This appeal is to raise clothing and food parcels for those
unfortunate enough to be caught up in it. Clothing is most sought
after. Items required include: -
Baseball caps
Fila Jackets
Heavy Twill Trousers (Male)
Shell Suits (Female)
Boots.
Man. Utd. shirts
Food parcels may be harder to put together but necessary all the
same. Required foodstuffs include: -
Hollands Pies
Black Peas
Tripe and Onions
"Pigs Blood Pud"
Boddys Bitter
Chips & Gravy
- £2 buys chips, scraps and blue pop for a family of four
- £10 can take a family to Salford for the day, where children can
play on an unspoiled canal bank among the national collection of
stinging nettles.
- 22p buys a biro for filling in a spurious compensation claim
