A gentleman who has a bald head and a wooden leg writes to a costume agency in order to obtain a costume for a fancy dress ball.
He writes..."Dear Sir,I have a bald head and a wooden leg, of which I am very proud and wish to order a costume for a fancy dress ball,what can you suggest."

Costume agency replies,"Dear Sir,Further to your letter,we have pleasure in supplying you with a Pirate outfit,the long coat will cover your wooden leg and the hat will cover your bald head,Yours sincerely etc etc.

The man is not happy about this and replies,"Dear Sir,I have previously mentioned that I am proud of my bald head and wooden leg and have no wish to cover either of them up,please suggest an alternative............"

Costume agency replies,"Dear Sir,We have pleasure in enclosing a Friar Tuck outfit,we feel that the hair piece will cover your baldness and the monks habit will cover your wooden leg, Yours sincerely".............. etc,etc

Man is now incensed and replies,"Dear Sir,I have repeatedly told you that as I am extremely proud of my bald head and wooden leg and have no wish to cover either of them up,will you please suggest something more suitable,otherwise I shall take my business elsewhere.............."

Costume agency finally replies,"Dear Sir,Further to your last letter we have pleasure in supplying you with a tin of treacle,may we suggest that as you are so proud of your bald head and wooden leg,you pour the treacle over your bald head,stick your wooden leg up your arse and go as a toffee apple!!!!!!!!
