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?

For rachelswipe and others...Round trip to Brighton from Victoria? No problems - atleast the drunken tw*t ended up back in London.
Try Christmas Eve, last train from Victoria to Canterbury, only to wake one of your passengers up at Canterbury West station:
Me: "Come on mate, time to wake up"
Him:"Is this Bromley South?"
Me: "Nope, Bromley's 50miles that way"
Him:[Slurring]"How much is a cab..."
P.S - It's not our job to telepathically know where you need to get off the train, nor is it our job to wake you from your Stella-induced coma.
P.P.S - Aparently, it cost him £120 to get back to London.
