Dyslexics Speak to Devil on Phoning Welsh Police



Beelzebub is offering just £250 for your soul - that's the credit crunch for you! Some dyslexics are becoming increasingly frustrated on phoning the Welsh police emergency service as they hear a recorded voice of the devil.

"The problem is," said Martin Judd, a self-confessed dyslexic from Cardiff, "I mistakenly dial 666 instead of 999."

"It's just a joke," admitted Superintendent Kevin O'Neill of the South Wales Constabulary. "We realised a growing number of dyslexics were making this error, so we contacted BT, had the 666 number connected as part of our emergency service, and then made a recording of the beast's voice."

Various examples of these calls have been released on CD as a police Christmas gift to jailed Welsh criminals.


Control Room: "What's your emergency?"

Caller: "I wish to report a break-in at my neighbour's house."

Control Room: "We buy souls for £250."

Caller: (pause) "The robbers are now stealing my neighbour's car."

Control Room: "£250 is my best offer. There is a credit crunch on, you know."

Caller: "Who are you?"

Control Room: "My name is Lucifer but you can call me Beelzebub."

Caller: "Beelzeblab, the robber's are getting away. Please, can you send out a police car."

Control Room: "I have four horsemen of the apocalypse available but no panda car."

Caller: (pause) "Horses? I want a car..."

Control Room: "£250 is my best offer. It really is..."

Caller: "Who are you?

Control Room: "Lucifer but you can call me Lucy."

(Sound of phone being hung-up)
"We have at least 20 different recordings," laughed PC O'Neill. "It brings a smile to the criminals we have locked up during the year."

Martin Judd continued, "I am more careful now, although when over in America recently, I phoned their emergency service and ended up speaking to God."
