Taken for a Ride

In love traveling in the country, but I don’t like losing my way. I went on an excursion recently, but my trip took me longer than I expected.

“I’m going to Woodford Green,” I said to the conductor as I got on the bus, “but I don’t know where it is.”

“I’ll tell you where to get off,” answered the conductor.

I sat in the front of the bus to get a good view on the countryside. After some time, the bus stopped. Looking around, I realized with a shock that I was the only passenger left on the bus.

“You’ll have to get off here,” the conductor said. “This is as far as we go.”

“Is this Woodford Green?” I asked.

“Oh dear,” said the conductor suddenly. “I forgot to put you off.”

“It doesn’t matter,” I said. “I’ll get off here.”

We are going back now,” said the conductor.

“Well, in that case, I would prefer to say on the bus,” I answered.
