This is a question 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?

Having attended a girls school...
Fantasise later, I have a story to tell.
Anyway, as I was saying, having attended a girls school, the excuse of period pain to get out of class had worn a bit thin. Female teachers wouldn't take a bar of it, and the few male teachers would do their best to pretend they didn't hear what just happened.

During a detention (an hour in silence, with 30 teenage girls? Hah!), a friend and I were chattering away in the corner while we thought the teacher wasn't looking. Of course, he'd noticed and boomed at me, "And what do you think you're doing, Miss is0lati0n? Do you want to be suspended?!"

"No sir, I was just asking if she had a tampon she could give me. You understand, don't you, sir?"

He nodded sheepishly and sat down.
