Incredible but true

Damm! Apologies for the duplication. I wish there were a way of deleting a post.
I see that people are opening this post that must be a bit frustrating so, to save that, here it is again:
In the UK one pays a licence fee if you own a TV. A colour TV licence costs £145.50 per year and TV Licensing said: “Some of the excuses are hilarious but being caught without a valid licence is a criminal offence and no laughing matter.”
Top 12 excuses:
1. Why would I need a TV Licence for a TV I stole? Nobody knows I’ve got it.
2. I have lost weight recently and had to buy new clothes. That’s why I could not afford to buy a TV Licence.
3. I had not paid as I received a lethal injection.
4. Apparently my dog, which is a corgi, was related to the Queen’s dog so I didn’t think I needed a TV Licence.
5. I don’t want to pay for a licence for a full year. Knowing my luck I’ll be dead in six months and won’t get value for money.
6. I could not pay for my TV Licence because the Olympic torch was coming down my road and I could not get to the shop as the road was too busy.
7. I only use my TV as a lamp. If you switch it on it gives a good glow which allows me to read my book.
8. The only way I can afford to pay for my TV Licence is if I sell my hamster, is that what you want me to do?
9. Only my three year old son watches the TV. Can you take it out of the family allowance I receive for him? He watches it so he should pay.
10. I spend so much time at my neighbour’s house, we thought we would just share a TV Licence. My neighbour has the other half.
11. I could not pay as I only have two pairs of pants and they were both in the wash.
12. I got caught shoplifting so I’m barred from the shop that takes PayPoint payment
