I understand your anxiety but you could be worrying for nothing. The sensible course is obviously to take her to one side and ask her whether the baby is her husband's. You don't have to reveal anything about your dream, and if the answer is 'yes' then you're in the clear and there's absolutely no harm done.

Can't comment on Bradford, but as for Greater Manchester is concerned, in Oldham the tensions were between whites in various areas of the town and Asians in the Glodwick area. Glodwick is the most deprived part of the town and is populated mainly by Bangladeshi's. The national stats say that Bengali/Bangladeshi's are the most impoverished of the Souther Asian communities. It also makes the point about standards in education. I have no axe to grind at all and I only quote stats as I'd prefer to do this than quote some Asian friends, who are amongst the most racist people (towards other Asians of different religious/national backgrounds) you could ever wish to meet. Consequently, although I listen to what they say about other Asians, I take each comment with a handful of salt. I find I can only give credence to what is said when it's not self-serving-indeed that's why I know a lot of the curry houses in Mcr are Pakistani run (as well as Bangladeshi) as I have an Indian mate who absolutely hates this fact and goes off on a diatribe every time we go for a meal there.

90% of Indian restaurants, and take aways are ran by Bangladeshi's and always have been. It's just more marketable to call it an Indians. Let's go for an Bangladeshi, it doesn't sound right does it, but the vast vast majority of them are Bangladeshi's. Good luck to them as well, they came over with nothing, created a huge, vast market that didn't exist before, and even became the suppliers of the a new meal which became the most popular in this country, and created Anglo-Indian food, like Chicken Tikka Masala. It's Anglo Indian food, but made by Bangladeshi's. Very, very rare you actually have an Indian meal, though, sorry to spoil the illusion. It's just like when Neville is dressed up in a turban in that restaurant in Dusseldorf, it's all an illusion, it's Bangladeshi ran, and Bangladeshi food. Having said though, Bangladesh to India has paralells as to what Scotland is to England. Anyway I think sit down meals aren't really my cup of tea, and more often that not pish. I paid for one for 7 people at "The Wheatsheaf" near the airport about a few years ago, 4 course meals, 2 bottles of wine, fuckin £150, the cheeky cunts, I wouldn't care it was shite. Aye, theres a lot of Bangladeshi run 'Indians' but 90% is way off tbf. Pakistani's have massive market share an all. Trust me mate, Bangladeshi's run 90% of Indian food places, trust me. It's their niche. Pakistani's are the poorest of the Asian settlers, a majority of them came over to work in industrial premises in the 50's and 60's in shitholes like Lancashire, and Yorkshire, the cotton industries collapsed in places like Manchester and Bradford and you end up with mass unemployment. A lot of the more affluent Pakistani's obviously run general dealers and corner shops, so do a percentage of Indians too but Pakistani's have the largest asian share of this marker. The Indians who came over used to, some perhaps still do, look down their noses at the other two, because they came over highly educated, and many filled medical positions, it's been said in the past, that Indians SAVED the NHS. Back to the main point though, the asian food market was primarily created, and continues to be dominated by Bangladeshi's under the Indian banner. Without a shadow of a doubt, the poorest of the main Southern Asian communities in the UK today is the Bengali/Bangladeshi community. They are also the lowest achievers in education, which is probably no co-incidence I should imagine. I agree there are many Bangladeshi owned curry houses. They are populously staffed by Bangladeshi waiters, which isn't the best paid job it has to be said.

Presumably it's worth something to him at least.

Agree, it's excellent. A bit different from your run of the mill curry house too. Is that the one towards the bottom of the street as you head down towards Eldon Square? If not which one is that as it looks canny from the outside (sad indictment of the trade but I'm always impressed by an Indian restaurant that doesnt look like complete shit from the street). Anyone in Manchester wants to try Azzurro in West Didsbury. Peerless pasta tbf. For a curry, make it Spicy Hut on Wilmslow Road. I miss chicken kebabs from Camel One And sitting in the park eating kebabs from Abduls at 4am Only way to eat them, pet! Camel One is proper dodgy these days like. It's open until 7 am mind tbf.

Anyone in Manchester wants to try Azzurro in West Didsbury. Peerless pasta tbf. For a curry, make it Spicy Hut on Wilmslow Road. It's on the street that runs from Percy Street up towards Barker and Stonehouse and the ground. It's on the right if you're going up the hill. It's quite trendy looking. Not sure if you'll know it but it used to be Julius Caesar which was your bog standard, candle in a Chianti bottle, type of Italian place. Yeah thats the badger. Thought it must have been as it does look conspicuously more 'up market' than your average curry house. Will give it a whirl sometime.
