Hurricane Shazza hit in the early hours of Monday. Epicentre: Basildon,
Essex. Victims were seen wandering around aimlessly, muttering
'faaackinell'. The hurricane decimated the area causing approximately ?30
worth of damage. Several priceless collections of mementos from the
Balearics and Spanish Costas were damaged beyond repair. Three areas of
historic burnt out cars were disturbed. Many locals were woken well before
their giros arrived.

Essex FM reported that hundreds of residents were confused and bewildered,
still trying to come to terms with the fact that something interesting had
happened in Basildon.

One resident - Tracy Sharon Smith, a 15-year-old mother of 5 said "Jesus! It
was a well big shock, d'ya know what I mean? me lil Chardonnay-Mercedes come
runnin into me bedroom cryin. Me youngest, Megan-Storm slept froo it all,
d'ya know what I mean? I was still shakin when I was watchin Trisha the next
morning. Ya know what I mean don't ya?"

Apparently though, looting, muggings and car crime did carry on as normal.
The British Red Cross has so far managed to ship 4,000 crates of Sunny
Delight to the area to help the stricken locals. Rescue workers are still
searching through the rubble and have found large quantities of personal
belongings, including 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 enough to be caught up in this disaster. Clothing is most sought
after - items most needed include:
- Louis Vuitton or Burberry baseball caps.

- Kappa tracksuit tops (his and hers).
- Shell suits (female).
- White sport socks.
- Rockport boots.
- Any other items usually sold in Primark.

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.
- Cans of Colt 45 or Special Brew.

22p buys a biro for filling in the compensation forms, chips, crisps and
blue fizzy drinks for a family of 9. ?5 will pay for a packet of B&H and a
lighter to calm the nerves of those affected.

**Breaking news**
Rescue workers found a girl in the rubble smothered in raspberry alcopop -
'where are you bleeding from?' they asked - 'ROMFORD mate' said the girl,
'woss that got to do wiv it?

Heard almost he same but the epicentre was changed to one of the more select locations in Dublin. The joke is easily localised.
