A major hurricane (Hurricane Shazza) and earthquake
measuring 5.8 on the Richter Scale hit Sheffield in the
early hours of Saturday with its epicentre in Parson Cross.

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 Majorca and
the Costa Del Sol were damaged beyond repair.

Three areas of historic burnt out cars were disturbed.

Many locals were woken well before their giros arrived.

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

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
Victoria-Storm slept through it all. I was still shaking
when I was skinning up and watching Trisha the next
morning."

Apparently looting, muggings and car crime were unaffected
and carried on as normal.

The British Red Cross has so far managed to ship 4,000
crates of Lambrini 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
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.
£2 buys chips, crisps and blue fizzy drinks for a family
of 9.
£5 buys 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 alco-pop.
'Where are you bleeding from?' they asked,
"Manor" said the girl, "woss that gotta
do wiv you?

This is years old and I remember seeing this exact same thing word for word when an earthquake hit Birmingham in September 2002.

Except Sheffield was substituted for Birmingham.

You have let the side down badly with old chestnut. I think some original new material is now needed.

Every time I see this time after time regurgitated thing I always wonder why the person posting it doesn't see that "Colt 45" as an alcoholic drink isn't a UK reference.

Of course Carling or WKD may been seen as adequate substitutes.

Not just this thread - every thread you have to pick spots and be pedantic/sarcastic/nasty/facetious. Nothing wrong with a good discussion but you really should chill for a while

Well if people are going to start stupid threads, examples tonight being:

- how many centimetres in a foot? (since been deleted)
- Are we going to get much snow this year?

...as well as the twice daily "what bus do I catch", then they don't deserve pleasantries.

I will be pleasant to who I like, thank you.

Now let's get back on topic. That's if there was a topic to begin with! We have acertained the opening gambit is years old and merely a variation of previous events, as per the link I posted from 2002.

A major hurricane (Hurricane Thatcha) and earthquake measuring 0.1 on the Richter Scale hit Sheffield in the early hours of Saturday with its epicentre in Dore.

Victims were seen wandering around aimlessly, muttering "Golly".

The hurricane decimated the area causing approximately 30p worth of damage (estimates may vary for insurance purposes).

Several priceless collections of betting chips from Antibes and Monte Carlo were damaged beyond repair.

Three areas of historic burnt-out middle-managers were disturbed.

Many locals were woken well before their maids arrived.

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

One resident - Amelia Fforbes-Smythe, a 65-year-old mother of one said, "It was such a shock, my little Fanny came running into my bedroom crying. I was still shaking when I was snorting my muesli and listening to Radio 4 the next morning."

Apparently, delivery of Agas and the Daily Mail carried on as normal.

The British Red Cross has so far managed to ship 4,000 crates of Glen Morangie 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 pension books, jewellery from Elizabeth Duke at Argos and Bone China from Poundland (the truth is out!).

... etc... etc... It's really not difficult to recycle this nonsense...
