A man goes into a café in Liverpool run by a koala. He asks "Do you use locally-sourced ingredients?"
"Yes" says the koala. "Our water is taken straight from the River Mersey."
The man asks for a cup of tea, but pulls a face when he tastes it.
"There are koala hairs in my tea" he complains.
"Oh, don't you know?" says the koala. "The koala tea of Mersey is not strained."
