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?

Consider this a research projectAs has been mentioned elsewhere on the board, Pink Goddess's sister has her own time zone. She's supposed to be here at 12. It's now 11:54. We'll see when she shows, and I promise to get an excuse out of her and post it here.
More news as it breaks!
(Oh, by the way, don't hold your breath, even if you are a pearl diver. There's a limit, you know!)
Edit: To no-one's amazement, she was over an hour late. Oh, and she didn't have an excuse, just smiled and reminded us that we know what she's like.
