Wild things

Dear Howletts & Port Lympne Wild Animal Park,

In sooth, I know not why I am so sad. Yes, I do: I work in an office! I don't know what I do or how I ended up here but it is very boring and I really don't feel like I belong here. The other people in the office are very different to me and say perhaps I was raised by lions. Hence this here email to you today. I would like to come and visit you as I believe my family may be residents in your park. I am 6ft tall and fair-headed with a cheeky face and slightly squewiff. Does this sound familiar? Do you have any animals fitting this description? If so, I am certainly on the right path. I am very excited about leaving this office job and finally being reunited with my fellow creatures of the wild. Is there space for me in the park? I quite like to run around and I drink a lot of water too. Apart from this I have few demands. I like to read but only books about animals like the ones by Gerald Durrell. He is dead now but did he live in the park when he was alive? Perhaps he was my father. I am coming to see you to find out the truth! Please let me know when would be a good time to come and what sort of clothes, if any, I should bring.

Many thanks,

Gerry
