Man becomes Mr Yellow-Rat Foxysquirrel Fairydiddle for a pint
ananova.com

A man from St Albans has agreed to change his name to Mr Yellow-Rat Foxysquirrel Fairydiddle in exchange for a pint of beer.

Richard James's friends all wrote stupid names on the back of a beer mat.

They then paid £38 to change his name using their laptop. He got a pint in exchange.

But James, who is unemployed, doesn't have the money to change his name back.

"It was funny at the time but now I'm brassed off with all the jokes," he tells The Sun.

"I said I'd do it for a laugh if they bought me a pint. I enjoyed it for a while and had a credit card in my new name and informed my bank. But now I just want to be called Richard again."
