How much is that doggy…
TravelMole receives hundreds of emails a day and, to be honest, many go straight into the trash.
Alongside the usual offers of Viagra and requests for urgent funds to be transferred, we hear from people all over the world, wanting to tell us about their new holistic spa or their new tuk tuk tour.
Sometimes there is no travel connection whatsoever.
But this week we received the strangest email request of all and thought it only fair to share it with you:
