Football

Here is Hob's story:

My young cousin Ted is uncle Ben's son. He's only a lad of nine, but he is mad on football. I was staying at uncle Ben's house in Lancashire a week or two ago, and on Saturday young Ted didn't come home for dinner. However, he turned up about three o'clock and I said, «Hallo, Ted, what have you been doing?»

Ted: I was playing football in the street and a policeman came up and said, «Here, young man, you mustn't play football in the street.» Well, as soon as he went away I started to play again. He came back and said, «Didn't I say you mustn't play football in the street? Go on, run off home.» Well I just waited till he turned the corner and I started to play again – and then he came again and caught me.

Hob: Oh, what did he do?

Ted: He said, «Now you'll have to come to the police-station to see the sergeant.»

Hob: He said you were to go to the police-station, did he, and what did the sergeant say?

Ted: He pretented to be angry, but he's a friend of uncle Albert and he used to play football for Manchester City himself when he was younger, and after he'd talked to me he asked me if I'd had dinner, and when I said I hadn't he said, «Must I eat the roll, Sergeant?» He said, «You don't have to if you don't want it.»

Hob: So what did you do then?

Ted: I put it in my pocket till I got outside and then I played football with it!
