[00:16.09]I love travelling in the country, [00:18.92]but I don't like losing my way. [00:22.63]I went on an excursion recently, [00:25.41]but my trip took me longer than I expected. [00:30.20]'I'm going to Woodford Green,' [00:32.63]I said to the conductor as I got on the bus, [00:36.84]'but I don't know where it is.' [00:40.50]'I'll tell you where to get off.' answered the conductor. [00:46.00]I sat in the front of the bus to get a good view of the countryside. [00:52.18]After some time, the bus stopped. [00:55.92]Looking round, I realized with a shock that I was the only passenger left on the bus. [01:04.21]'You'll have to get off here,' [01:07.03]the conductor said. 'This is as far as we go.' [01:12.42]'Is this Woodford Green?' I asked. [01:16.04]'Oh dear,' said the conductor suddenly. [01:20.23]'I forgot to put you off.' [01:23.32]'It doesn't matter,' I said. 'I'll get off here.' [01:28.45]'We're going back now,' said the conductor. [01:32.68]'Well, in that case, [01:34.90]I prefer to stay on the bus,' I answered.
