Why I was late"On the way to the station, I got hit by a bat, it almost took my head clean off. Then the machine would not accept my ticket and the guy at the gate didn't think I looked like the photo on my travel card. So I had to go home and get my passport.
Then the train was 45 minutes late to the station because of the dangerous badger threat at Carpenters Park.
When I was on the train it took and hour and a half to get past the biscuit factory because the driver was really fat.
Then there was a delay stopping at the station because the train in front had heard we were coming and decided to play a practical joke with a rubber shoe on the track.
That is why I couldn't get here on time today."
What's your best excuse?

Oh yeah, and while I'm at it......at Bangkok Airport Terminal 2... circa October 2005…
Me: “Here's my passport and flight ticket etc....”
Impatient Thai Man Behind Desk: “Sorry Mr. Robber, your plane flew to Zurich yesterday evening.”
I’d missed my fucking flight. By a WHOLE DAY though.
Turned out I’d not really checked my return flight ticket properly and spent an extra day in the arse end of Bangkok than was necessary…
