Subject: A firm with a sense of humour, at last.

 

 



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 emphasizes
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 emphasizing 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 arse and go as a toffee
apple.
