A man with a bald head and a wooden leg was invited to a fancy dress party, and he didn't know what to wear to hide his bald head and his wooden leg, so he wrote to a Fancy Dress Company to explain his problem and ask for advice.
A few days later he received a parcel with a note:
"Dear Sir
Please find enclosed a pirate's outfit. The spotted handkerchief will cover you bald head and with your wooden leg, you will be just right to go as a pirate."
The man thought that this was terrible because they had only emphasized his disability, so he wrote a letter of complaint.
A week passed and he received another parcel and a 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."
By now the man was really furious because the Company had gone from emphasizing his wooden leg to drawing attention to his bald head. So he wrote a really rude letter of complaint back to the Company.
A few days later, he got a very small parcel from the Company with the accompanying letter:
"Dear Sir
Please find enclosed a tin of Golden Syrup. Pour the tin of Golden Syrup over your bald head, stick your wooden leg up your arse and go as a f***ing toffee apple."
