Man changes his name to Tim Pppppppppprice

Cold callers are really annoying as the people also seem to ring up at the most annoying times.

Most people just treat it as a part of everyday life, but not Tim Price, who has come up with a novel way to get around the problem.

For just £30, he had his name changed to Tim Pppppppppprice and it means anyone who phones him unsolicited will have a mouthful to deal with.

He stated: "I like it. I did it to put them off, all these people who keep calling me trying to sell me things I don't want."

It means if anyone rings up the genius they have to address him as Tim Per-per-per-per-per-per-per-per-per-per-rice, which is sure to put off plenty of people.

Mr Pppppppppprice certainly has struck on an unusual way to deal with this problem and I can't wait to see what his new passport will look like.
