After they had been in the train a little while, they heard the ticket inspector coming down the corridor, shouting, “tickets, please!” Michael looked for his and of course couldn’t find it.

“Oh, dear, I can’t find my ticket, Derek,” he said.

“Have another look, Michael, it must be somewhere,” said Derek.

“No, I can’t find it anywhere. What shall I do?”

“Perhaps you had better hide under the seat, then the inspector won’t know you are here.” So Michael crawled under the seat as fast as he could and lay perfectly still. Presently the door opened and in came the inspector, “Tickers please!” he said.
