Good Excuse?
I had a report in yesterday, slight errors in it but a note on the bottom:
Sorry for any errors, have been away doing Early Music for 3 days - head not quite out of C14th.
Given that I am one of the most unmusical of OB's, so should I accept it as an excuse?

It's a long way away in South Wales this year. I count the crowned bard from Preselli as a personal friend.sejintenej wrote: Reply:

Re: Good Excuse?
When I was at CH, we had a Master, who would forgive misdemeanours for an "Original" Excuse ------
A Grecian was late for class --- some 15 minutes -- and pleaded, in a "Squit" voice --- "Please Sir, I got lost "
This being common among the new arrivals ------- he got away with it !!!
