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?

Maybe I do have a problem then
It's a bit off topic but I do like this story. I think this guy was/is a comedian but I can't remember his name. Anyway it's about the moment he realised that he probably did have a drinking problem. Went out with his mates for a few beers in Manchester and woke up on a beach in Brighton! He telephoned his wife to apologise for not being home last night. "Last night?" says the wife, "No one has seen you for three days!"
