:oops: :oops: :oops: :oops:

Sorry Lissie.

you can get gammon here - just costs an awful lot of money :o :o :o

There was a small lump of smoked gammon in Iceland, for 7.99€ Less than half a pound :shock: :shock:

The larger lump, which looked pretty disgusting, never seen that cut of gammon before, was 33€ :x :x :x About 2 kilos, but still.........................

It's just not a Portuguese food Manxie. They're into pork or chicken.

I've never seen it in any Portuguese supermarket, in all the years I've lived here. But the one's that the English use, like Iceland/Waitrose in Guia is the place to get it. I've never heard so many English voices :oops: :lol: :lol: Even the staff were English :shock:
