rob and son go fishing

[Ken Gargett]

Little Ayala jnr ran into the house, crying his eyes out.

His mother asked him what had happened. "Dad and I were fishing and he hooked a really big fish. It was huge. When he was reeling it in, though, the line broke and the fish got away."

"Goodness, Little Ayala Jnr," his mother replied, "you're a big boy now. You shouldn't be crying about an accident like that. You should have laughed." "That's exactly what I did!" he sobbed.
