Tongue twisters with numbers

Hello everyone!

I�m trying to collect tongue twisters in English which include numbers, to practise pronunciation.

For example, The sick sheik�s sixth sheep�s sick;Theophilus Thistle, the successful thistle sifter, Thrust three thousand thistles through the thick of his thumb; Six sick hicks nick six slick bricks

Do you know any more? Once I�ve collected a few, I will put up a printable on the website.

Thank you!

If two witches were watching two watches, which witch would watch which watch.

Seventy seven benevolent elephants.
