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?

Good excuse: couldn't use it....My parents weren't real big on entertaining, so when they did it was a big deal. I had to be there in good time. 14 years old then. So, hang-gliding is technically illegal, especially when you and a mate have forged IDs saying you are 18 so you can take the basics lessons. To cut a long one short (see below)we use a great deal of 3-strand barbed wire fencing in my country. I turned out to be excellent at hang-gliding immediately. First solo go. At the going up part anyway. So much so that it quickly became apparent that I was simply going to "land" by hitting abovementioned barbed wire fence at speed. Top strand; minor nipple puncture. Bottom strand: some scratching to right knee. Middle strand: SLICED MY C*CK NEARLY HALF WAY ROUND I AM SHOUTING NOW BECAUSE I CAN STILL REMEMBER THE PAIN AND....well, the shock. Right on the ol' circumcision scar. So, I was late because I was stitching my own penis back together with sutures from the meagre first-aid kit in my mate's parent's "borrowed" car and drinking fairly heavily to alleviate the shock.
I just told mum I was at the mall and the bus was late back.
Length? I wonder, if that hadn't happened....
