Title: A Good Excuse
Post by: Bangbang on March 15, 2012, 07:36:10 pm: I think I need a day off work..
I can't come up with a good reason - (to brain-dead)

Any ideas?

I'm to far from my Mum to ask for a note :(

(I do work for myself so no employers would be harmed in the making of this)

However, will be in tomorrow!!
