[00:13.68]Did the boy go where he wanted to?
[00:20.00]Children who play truant from school are unimaginative.
[00:26.25]A quiet days' fishing,
[00:27.70]or eight hours in a cinema seeing the same film over and over again, is usually as far as they get.
[00:36.05]They have all been put to shame by a boy who, while playing truant travelled 1, 600 miles.
[00:46.04]He hitchhiked to Dover and towards evening
[00:49.86]went into a boat to find somewhere to sleep.
[00:54.20]When he woke up next morning,
[00:57.06]he discovered that the boat had, in the meantime, travelled to Calais.
[01:03.79]No one noticed the boy as he crept off.
[01:07.62]From there, he hitchhiked to Paris in a lorry.
[01:13.00]The driver gave him a few biscuits and a cup of coffee and left him just outside the city.
[01:20.57]The next car the boy stopped did not take him into the centre of Paris as he hoped it would,
[01:27.53]but to Perpignan on the French-Spanish border.
[01:32.02]There he was picked up by a policeman and sent back to England by the local authorities.
[01:39.89]He has surely set up a record for the thousands of children who dream of evading school.
