GOLDEN SYRUP

    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, let it harden, then stick your wooden leg up your arse
    and go as a toffee apple.:D
