Dear Mr P Have I told you how cool your new haircut looks? I am writing to you to ask for an extension on my history homework. As you know, I've always had a very grubby attitude towards deadlines. However, something unexpected happened. My mum and I were in my lounge enjoying some slippery cucumbers when a wet monkey came barging in brandishing a pair of golf clubs. It looked at me with spiky eyes. I stared at its sharp brain. When it started crashing, I knew it meant business. I made a dive for my history homework but the wet monkey decided to kiss my face and then run off daring. I was taken aback. So shocked was I, that I didn't realise that the wet monkey had grabbed my history homework until much later. Later that evening I was snuggling with my pet,when I suddenly noticed that my history homework was missing. I searched high and low, I even looked in colleague's desk. Eventually, I reached the obvious conclusion the monkey took it.
