Well that's not something any of my pupils have ever given as a reason.
The funniest one was 'Mum's new boyfriend had a sleepover and she forgot to set the alarm'.

Nothing is secret with kids about.
I had one of my assistants once explain that she was late because someone tied a dog to her car.
The next week she was late because her eggs were too hot and she had to wait for them to cool down before she made her sandwiches.

Beats , 'the bus was late'
10/10 for creativity.

In 1672 the enormous ear-like growths discovered by Galileo were the rings of Saturn.
Through that very first telescope that's what they looked like to him.
We now know that the rings are 172,000 miles wide and only 328 feet thick.

In Shakespeare she's not named and I can't remember her historical name, something like Greta or Gretna, i forget, not quite right.
I'll wait before I google it!
