A quite day's fishing , or eight hours in a cinema seeing the same film over and over again, is usually as far as they get.

They have all been put to shame by a boy who, while playing truant ,travelled 1600 miles.

When he woke up next morning, he discovered that the boat had , in the meantime, travelled to Calais.

No one noticed the boy as he crept off.

From there, he hitchhiked to Paris in a lorry.

The next car the boy stopped did not take him into the center of Paris as he hoped it would, but to Perpignan on the French-Spanish border.
