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? When did you use it and why?!

Orgnote

I tried to use "ladies problems" but it didn't work

All the excuses I use are REAL but so beyond normal happenings, some may thing I have an extraordinary imagination, or just damned unlucky.

You are a special girl!

No, in all seriousness, you're right which I find cute about you.

REDFEATHERS said:

lol

JDInteractive said:

Ok I will give a few examples, some of which you have already heard.

Waiting ages for a bus, and when it turned up it crashed before it got to my stop. Can you remember?

Another one, I was kidnapped by a taxi driver and the police tailed us for some 20 30 minutes, when they got the driver to pull over, he was taking me OUT of London - NORTH and not south where I wanted to be. The car was a cut and shunt, so they arrested the guy for driving illegally and kidnapping.. imagine explaining that to my boss

REDFEATHERS said:

They are the best. Whats the story about you ending up with the police and getting upset because you were going to see Prince that night?

JDInteractive said:

that wasnt a work excuse..

but they drove me there..



I remember I went to a gig with my sis in Walthamstow and the lead singer offered us a lift home back to Osterley - south London.. he said he was going back to birmingham, and we said oh its on the way.. you just gotta take a detour..

he drove for about 45 mins OUT of his way.. Oh he is fucking gorgeous, a friend.. but he still took us home and we partied afterwards..

This is why I love you, you make me kill myself laughing and it's all true.

I know.. I think God makes me suffer in this world so I will have a ball in heaven..

Oh check my other reply.

Teacher said:

You know all this and more Jen, but following this weekends scenario (keep your mouth shut lol ) says it all..

I just tell them the truth which is usually that I woke up late or traffic on the freeway.

Oh never say that.. its too boring

REDBABY said:

it is very boring but I can never think of anything that could even remotely sound believable. plus if I think up something good I'll probably forget what I said and end up screwing up when asked about it later... I've had that happen

I was late to exams because the train had a flat battery.
