Yes I know...not for the first time so pipe down at the back! Grin

Anyway, the couple next door are Sri Lankan and when their back door is open and my side conservatory window is open...the smell of their cooking comes straight in. Mostly, the food smells kind of like Tandoori.

Some of their dinners smell really lovely..but every Tuesday my neighbour cooks something that smells absolutely gorgeous..smells like a spicy onion stew or something.

So I've been saying to my DH for months that the next time I'm in the garden, I'll ask her what it is and if I can have a recipe...ok I might have been hoping for a little sample if she was feeling generous Blush

Anyway, I saw her today and said "Oooh XXX can I ask what you cook on a Tuesday, because it makes my mouth water? I'd love a recipe if you don't mind"

She took one look at me like this -> Shock and then burst out laughing and said "Yes, I boil my Husband's work overalls!!"

Won't be leaving the house for quite some time Blush

You have just done the impossible.... you have made my 15 year old DS laugh before he has eaten breakfast! Grin

Sorry no more stories...unless you count the fact I spent almost a year calling the guy Ronnie and then noticed he signed their Christmas card from 'Reggie' Blush

Clearly he's too stupid to know his own name Grin
