Cupar is a small place, the County town of Fife. So the unfortunate farmer who was recently found guilty of fornicating with his wife's dog, won't be going down to his local boozer again for a couple of decades. And a bit more probably.

Apparently, it was a one-off moment of madness (lust?) caused by the state of his marriage. It gives a whole new meaning to "giving the dog a bone".

Rather than indulge in highly enjoyable double entendres, we were wondering about all-time lame excuses.

Here are some of our suggestions. Some readers may have to ask their parents:

I didn't know I was going to be First Minister, did I? Shagger admits his affair in public
   
How could I know the dog would get in the way? Norman Scott's Great Dane gets shot by hit men allegedly employed by the Liberal Party leader at the time, Jeremy Thorpe
   
I must have left my zipper down. Bill Clinton
   
I've never been much good at counting. Henry McLeish
   
I didn't know people lived in a city. G Bush
   
I didn't know people lived in a city T. Bliar
   
How was I to know that red, white and blue were the colours of the British flag? Most US pilots in Eyeraq
   
I was just making sure that your radar gun was working properly officer. 126 MPH, you say? Yes, it's in perfect condition Princess Anne gets stopped for speeding … again
   
Please excuse Wee Johnny from being absent yesterday. He had diah, dirih, diahoah, dyah, the shits. Wee Johhny's mum
