Some love rats certainly know their onions when it comes to dreaming up whoppers to cover their cheating.
They tell partners they’re digging at their allotment while jig-jigging instead.
And others confess to spinning a railway line by telling loved ones they’re off trainspotting, a poll reveals.
The really adventurous invent canoeing weekends with pals while they’re off canoodling.
But the most common lie was going on a “work trip” with a quarter of cheaters admitting to it in gambling site freebet.com ’s poll of 2,000 men.
That was closely followed by “watching football” (18%) when they’re actually playing away with a lover.

Working late, rounds of golf, darts matches and visiting family were also popular covers for affairs.
But the rarer excuses – by 100 allotment diggers, 40 trainspotters and another 40 canoe paddlers – left staff at freebet staff gobsmacked, said spokesman Tim Agnew.
“We expected work trips and attending sports events like a big football match to be used as excuses by men cheating on their partners,” he added.
“But going trainspotting or tending to a vegetable patch at an allotment is a new one on us.
“Who would question either?”
