"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?

I am known for constantly being late - in fact people usually tell me a different earlier time to arrive knowing that I've a possibility of making it at the time they actually want. But I digress. My best excuse and totally and utterly true was used a couple of months ago. Was going to go and stay with a friend and go for a meal and was supposed to turn up early afternoon to spend time with them before having to go out. Arrived four hours later than was expected and asked my excuse.
I was having one of my girlie pigs inseminated by another friend's new intact boar. Strangely enough, no one had ever given that as an excuse before...
