| Subject: | Lost In The Translation... |  |

Great model, inspired to do a "Poodle" of my own now. One question though - I suspect it's something that doesn't translate to English correctly, but what's a "gammon"?
My dictionary translates it as "The buttock or thigh of a hog, salted and smoked and dried". I grew up eating gammon steaks - sorta like thick bacon. Is this something that doesn't translate well from Polish? Or is it for real? Somehow the situation where a Panther is captured by Boy Scouts is already quite surreal enough for them to have done so using Molotov cocktails and pig thighs.
