A bloke with a baldy head and a wooden leg is invited to a fancy dress party. He doesn’t know what to wear to hide is head and wooden leg, so he writes to the 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’ll look just right as a pirate."
The bloke thinks this is terrible because they have just emphasized his wooden leg, so he writes a letter of complaint.
A few days later 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 your bald head really will make you look the part."
This really annoys him now, cos the company have gone from emphasizing his wooden leg to drawing attention to his bald head, so he writes a really rude letter of complaint, pointing out that the proprietors parents probably weren't married and what they could do with the monks habit.
A few days later he gets a very small parcel and an 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 backside and go as a toffee apple.’
Have a great day ... it's sunny xxx

The best psychological health comes from admitting your faults and recognizing they're caused by someone else.
