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?

Otherwise I would have made it.I was coming from visiting my girlfriend but my car was broken so I had to hitchhike. I got picked up by two AWOL soldiers and this hot girl. Actually it was her car and she picked them up. But they were almost out of gas. We parked on a side road. The less good-looking soldier and I walked into town to syphon some gas while the handsome soldier and the hot car-owner got it on in the car. But we weren't any good at syphoning gas and came back with nothing. In our absence, the cops had come by at an inopportune moment, but they didn't ID the soldier. Who was AWOL. But they were all cranky and upset, and out of gas anyway, so I left them. While I was walking back to the highway, I was accosted by an angry drunk, who had wanted a newspaper so badly he had punched his hand through the glass of a newspaper box. He bled all over my sweater, so when I got to the city I had to stop by my house to change my clothes, and that's why I was late.
