A man with a bald head and a wooden leg is invited to a fancy
dress party, and, not sure what to wear to hide his baldness and his wooden leg, he writes to a fancy dress company for advice.

A few days later, a parcel arrives with a pirate's costume and a letter
which said, 'Dear sir, thank you for your letter, please find enclosed a
pirate outfit. The spotted handkerchief can be used to cover your head
and you will look the part because of your wooden leg.'

The man was very angry about this because all the company had done was to emphasise his wooden leg, and so wrote them a very snotty letter in return.

Several days later, another parcel arrived along with a covering letter,
which read, ' Dear sir, we apologise for any offence we may have caused
you and hereby enclose a monk's habit for you to wear. We feel the long
robe will suitably cover your wooden leg and your bald head will be in
keeping as a monk!"

The man was livid because the company had simply shifted the emphasis
from his wooden leg to his bald head and so wrote them another angry letter of complaint.

A few days later another parcel arrived along with a letter. He opened
the parcel to find a jar of soft caramel.

He read the letter, which said..

'We recommend you pour the contents of the jar over your bald head, stick your wooden leg up your a**e and go as a toffee apple'
