I was thinking of starting up a small zoo, so I wrote a letter to Dudley Zoo: ‘Dear sir, I’m starting up a zoo, can you please send me two mongooses.’
I thought that didn’t sound right, so I tried again: ‘Dear sir, I’m starting up a small zoo, please send me two mongeese.’
Nope, that still didn’t sound right. ‘Dear sir, I’m starting up a small zoo, please send me two Mongi.’
‘Ahh, s*d it,’ I thought. 'Dear sir, I’m starting up a small zoo, please send me a mongoose.
P.S.
