A man with a bald head and a wooden leg is invited to a Xmas fancy
dress party. He doesn't know what to wear to hide his head and his
wooden leg, so he writes to a fancy dress company to explain his
problem. A few days later he receives a parcel with a note:

Dear Sir,
Please find enclosed a Pirate's outfit. The spotted handkerchief will
cover your bald head and with your wooden leg you will be just right as a Pirate.

The man is offended that the outfit emphasises his disability, so he

writes a letter of complaint. A week passes and he receives another parcel and note:

Dear Sir,
Sorry about the previous parcel. Please find enclosed a monk's habit.
The long robe will cover your wooden leg and with your bald head you
will really look the part.


The man is really incandescent with rage now, because the company has
gone from emphasising his wooden leg to drawing attention to his bald
head. So he writes a really strong letter of complaint. A few days later he

gets a very small parcel from the company with the accompanying letter:

Dear Sir,
Please find enclosed a tin of Golden Syrup. We suggest you pour the tin

of Golden Syrup over your bald head, stick your wooden leg up your a--e

and go as a toffee apple.

Ann

Loved your joke and shared it my golfing friends today. It took them several minutes to regain the composure to play seious golf. They even wanted me to share with a group at another table after the game.
