Welcome to Gaia! ::

A major Hurricane (Shazza) measuring 5.8 on the Richter scale hit in the early hours of Monday. Epicentre: Basildon, Essex. Victims were seen wandering around aimlessly, muttering "faaackin ell" ...

The hurricane decimated the area causing approximately £30 worth of damage. Several priceless collections of mementos from the Balearics and panish Costa's were damaged beyond repair. Three areas of historic burnt out cars were disturbed. Many locals were woken well before their giro arrived.

Essex FM (County Radio Station) 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 "It was such a shock, my little Chardonnay-Mercedes came running into my bedroom crying. My youngest two Tyler-Morgan and Megan-Storm slept through it all. I was still shaking when I was watching Trisha the next morning."

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:

* Fila or Burberry baseball caps

Food parcels may be harder to come by, but are needed all the same.

£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 claret - 'Where are you bleeding from?' they asked - "ROMFORD" said the girl, "woss that got to do wiv it?"

Not be the boring one but...I dont get it...=/

*shakes my head slowly* I don't get it either, don't worry. I just didn't want to post and say that I didn't get it sweatdrop

heh thanks sui (:
i should change it to zeh rickster scale instead of richter scale..

and although you kinda have to be British to understand the 'chav' culture, I'd have thought the second paragraph explains the kind of cost of living... assume that the hurricaine wiped out the WHOLE town. also note the 'historic burnt out cars'..

But yeah I guess it does help a looooot to understand the culture in the first place.

"Where are you bleeding from?' they asked - "ROMFORD" said the girl, "woss that got to do wiv it?"
rofl rofl rofl
bleeding replace with another 'swear' word. Even though bleeding isn't really considered much of a swear word.


I'm just trying to explain it better so that non-british people can enjoy the humour of this gonk
