Dudley Earthquake Appeal (What are they trying to say about us?) by M Taylor
A major earthquake measuring 4.8 on the Richter scale, hit in the early hours of Monday 23rd September 2002 epicentered
on Dudley, West Midlands.
Victims can be seen wandering aimlessly muttering : "Yam Orwight?", "Boing Boing" and "Bostin". The earthquake decimated
the area, causing approximately £30 worth of damage.
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 unclude: Flat caps, Donkey Jackets, Heavy Twill Trousers (Male),
Shell Suits (Female), Boots.
Food parcels may be harder to put together but necessary all the same. Required foodstuffs include:
Faggots, Grey Peas, Pork Scratchings, Tripe and Onions, "Pigs Blood Pud", Banks's Bitter or Mild.
Please do not send tents for shelter, as the sight of "posh" housing is unfair on the population of neighbouring
areas of Gornal, Oldbury and Sedgley.
