That beats "my hamster ate my jotter". Hands down. :-)

You did but it didn't register. In the UK, woods are what used to be
there. ;-)

No, I don't suppose you can.
It deserves to be told though.

So, after my husband died, it looked like going back to school with Pell
grants and student loans might be a route to survival. Meanwhile, my
nephew had given me an adorable puppy (and let me just add, my old dog
thought it was a Terrible Idea and an Utter Betrayal--for about 36
hours, after which she was HIS puppy)...And so it was, that I found
myself, at the age of [mumble mumble], able to stand up in class, wave a
shredded worksheet in the air, and proudly say, for the first time in
[mumble mumble] years:
"MY DOG ATE MY HOMEWORK!!!'
It was, and remains, one of the great moments in my life.

That is a funny/weird story indeed. It can end quite badly however
sometimes though. A couple of years ago here, police erupted into a
house, bashed and forcefully arrested the people living there, upturned
the furniture, smashed what could be smashed, only to discover
afterwards (oops!) that they got into the wrong house in the street.

In the USA, we call this a normal day at the precinct.

Well, didn't you hear? The cops break into everyone's house/flat on a
daily basis. Usually using flashbangs.
It's mandatory that this happen - if the cops don't do it, they get
waterboarded. Their job is to terrify the citizenry.
