Everything When the Name is Butt Oct 24, 9:54 am ET LONDON (Reuters) - A British couple have been forced to move house because of the shame caused by the name of their street -- Butt Hole Road. Paul and Lisa Allott sold their $250,000 bungalow in Conisbrough, northern England after living there for just 15 months, fed up with the constant leg-pulling. Taxis and pizza delivery men would fail to turn up, thinking their order was just a prank, and they grew tired with groups of youths posing for photos by the nearby street sign with their buttocks bared. "I like a laugh, but it was beyond a joke," Allott told the Sun newspaper. Attempts by Reuters to contact the new residents were unsuccessful -- they have taken a confidential telephone number. Quote
