Tesco stole my butty idea

According to the papers, culinary history has been made by Tesco who have launched a curry sandwich.

It is described as an 'innovation' which is to revolutionise the UK food industry.

Hang on a second, I thought, I was eating curry sandwiches 20 years ago, usually in a vain bid to stave off a hangover following a good session.

Or perhaps I didn't, which kind of makes sense in the twilight world of life viewed through the bottom of a glass.

Sadly, I have the evidence. I've got at least one shirt from that era still at home which started out life blue, and is now a kind of dayglo orangey-yellow. Perhaps I should try market it to Tesco as a Chicken Tikka Top.

If Tesco really want to make a killing they should create a binge drinking kit. They've already got the cheap booze, now the curry sandwich, so all that's left is a stomach pump. The deluxe model could even include a taxi driver to rip you off and a set of parents or partner to tut at you when you stumble through the front door.

It's a winner.
