      I've got 3 bloody great Naans... a huge pile of rice... the big green and red bits I thought were capsicums (sp?) are sliced "evil bastard" Chilli.....

      I tastes great.. but its hotter than any vindaloo/phall.... seriously.... runny nose, tears and gasping..... If I had any sense I wouldn't eat it.... but then I'd have to choose something else....

      if I can manage to speak I will have to order a minty drink or a lussi or something....

        Pick the chillis out and do not eat. If you shovel the rest down with the rice and naan the consequences should not be too dire - but get up an hour early to be sure (and open a window)

          Make sure you save some for breakfast. It's always better then.
          How did this happen? Who's to blame? Well certainly there are those more responsible than others, and they will be held accountable, but again truth be told, if you're looking for the guilty, you need only look into a mirror.

            Odds are if he doesn't open the window it will be blasted out anyway.

            In these circumstances explosive decompression is a serious risk, tell the hotel to have the builders on standby with new doors, windows and bathroom ceramics.

              There are (or indeed were) strips of chilli all the way through...

              Hey ho..... If it has the effect I fear when I get up won't be a matter of choice!
              Windows don't open (cos it really shafts the aircon trying to cool the entire airmass of the Arabian Peninsular).

              Finished it now got a cooling drink on the way up...... all will be well......
              whats the worst that could happen...... actually don't - I really don't want to think whats the worst.........

              At least it didn't look like SY01's festering albino nob!

              although possibly my *rse will in the morning !

                Chilli oil is not soluble in water, so drinking lots of water won't help. However, it is soluble in alcohol, so best order some vodka now.

                And put the bog roll in the minibar fridge for tomorrow morning...

                  Ahhhhhhh! Therein lies the problem.... Saudis are not that keen on dishing out medicinal vodka!

                  But the second idea might be an option....... The thing is they have very powerful hose/shower heads next to every TulipTrap.... cos they don't traditionally use paper so a soothing jet of cold water might be in order...

                    It's too late unless you are recommending some sort of Naan bread nappy.
