Hello,

My names' Ray and its been 24 hour's since my last curry (but, havin another in a minute) ;D

Ok, so this is a light hearted post but, what is the addiction?

For me, it can't just be the cooking of one, although that plays it's part.  I've been addicted to curry long before I could cook them.  Dya think that there could actually be some addictive properties in the ingredients?

I love allsorts of food, Chinese, Italian, Thai, even good old English food, but nothing like my love of BIR food.  So what is it?

Take tonight for instance, her indoors has gone off to work at my sister's pub.  Now normally, I would have tootled off with her, not wanting to stay indoors by miself, plus, mi sis won't let me pay for a drink all night.  But tonight, the first thing that sprung to mind was, "as soon as she's gone, I'm gonna get messy in the kitchen, and knock up a bangin ruby for mi tea"  How sad is that???

I'm even dreaming about the stuff these day's

The wife said to me tonight,  "Right, I've put the lottery on.  What would you do if we won it?"

The first thing that come to mind was, I'd open a BIR restaurant.  Doesn't matter that I don't know enough about BIR food to open one, I'd employ a chef.  Doesn't matter that I've no idea how to run a restaurant, I'd employ someone that does.  Doesn't matter that there is already thousands of BIR's in Manchester, mine would be the best.

I replied to her question, already havin answered it in my head, "dunno love, what would you do?" she replied, "I'd have a boob job and liposuction"  and right away I thought, 'no you feckin wouldn't, I could buy a brand new professional cooking range with that money'

I am seriously beginning to think that this obsession with curry is not healthy, especially when I'm dreaming about the stuff.

It's got that bad, that I was looking at Domi's loverly doughnut's and thinking, 'wonder what they'd taste like with curry in them ;D

Oh well, I better get off and get mi curry fix, I'm gettin the shakesssssss assss I typeeee

Anyone else feel like this, or am I the only saddo on here?

Ray ;D

Ray what a great post  ;D
I don't know what it is really either but I do have a love for sauce in everything, perhaps thats it for me at least. I don't think its sad you are staying in to do something you really love either, thats bang on with what life is about isn't it.

Count me in I'm a saddo too. 
Enjoy your curry.

I understand about the addiction thing with curries and believe, somehow its real, the really worrying thing for me is that it seems to affect the male population a lot more than the female.
I mean yes, sometimes the missus will say" make a curry love", but its not that often, and 99 times out of a hundred im the instigator. And to be honest, what with the missus being a northern bird and only evolutionaryly advanced enough taste wise to find peas pud and gravy with her chips a culinary highlight, i think she only asks for it to get out of cooking for that particular night.
