"Parent on the spot" #2

Two quick queries from Dominic:

1. Why did God invent burglars in this world?

2. Why is there a number twenty, thirty, forty etc but not a tenty, tenty-one, tenty-two etc??

Answers, not on a postcard, to the usual address please.....

1) God invented burglars in this world to give big Alsatian police-dogs something to chase.

OR

1) God invented burglars so that every now and then, people can get old stuff replaced as new on their insurance.

OR

1) God invented burglars so that when they put their jumpers out for Oxfam, French people had something to wear.

Don't know anything about maths - sorry.

1. God didn't invent burglars, they evolved.

2. Because of umpteen good reasons!
