[00:00.49]The Wayle is a small river that cuts across the park near my home.
[00:07.17]I like sitting by the Wayle on fine afternoons.
[00:11.69]It was warm last Sunday, so I went and sat on the river bank as usual.
[00:18.13]Some children were playing games on the bank and there were some people rowing on the river.
[00:24.94]Suddenly, one of the children kicked a ball very hard and it went towards a passing boat.
[00:33.20]Some people on the bank called out to the man in the boat, but he did not hear them.
[00:40.26]The ball struck him so hard that he nearly fell into the water.
[00:46.36]I turned to look at the children, but there weren't any in sight:they had all run away!
[00:53.66]The man laughed when he realized what had happened.
[00:57.60]He called out to the children and threw the ball back to the bank.
