  • “I found my wife in the bath with my accountant” 
  • “pirates stole my accounts” 
  • “we delivered the accounts to the betting office next door to Companies House” 
  • “a volcano erupted and prevented me from filing” 
  • “slugs ate my accounts” 
  • “it was Valentine’s Day” 
  • “my company was more successful than I thought it would be, so I was too busy to file”
