Does anyone have any idea what the answer to the following puzzle is,

Put punctuation marks, speech marks, full stops, capitals and commas into
the following
statement to make sense of it.

Peter where Paul had had had had had had had had had had had Mr Hadland's
approval

Peter, where Paul had had "had", had had "had had". "Had had" had had Mr
Hadland's approval.

But of course, as long as we're talking about a response which hadn't had Mr. Hadland's approval, we can take this much further:


Peter, where Paul had had "had", had had "had had had had had had had had had had had had had had had had." "Had" had had Mr. Hadland's approval.

I much prefer this to the original. I wonder how I will feel when I am sober.
