If you don't know the story by now, we'll happily tell you again – Trampy and The Tramp (and, by extension, the entire TATTGOC brotherhood) were voted Curry Lover(s) of the Year at the recent Scottish Curry Awards 2010.

But do you remember who was the official Curry Lover of the Year 2009? It was First Minister Alex Salmond! So to mark the symbolic passing of the curry-lovin' torch, we reached out to the big man for a comment. And he very kindly got back to us!

Here's what First Minister Alex Salmond said:

“Congratulations on being recognised for your blog’s contribution to supporting Glasgow’s many and varied curry restaurants in this year’s Scottish Curry Awards.

“The Awards have again helped support a very worthy charity and I congratulate all those individuals and restaurants who were winners and nominated in this year’s competition.”

First Minister, TATTGOC salutes you!
