IgnoranceFrom my partner's colleague, overhearing some chat about the Gurkha legal battle some time ago:
"What's a gherkin?"
She's pushing 40 and is, frankly, thick as fuck.

Alright, maybe gurkha/gherkin...I can see thick people getting mixed up. I used to get the two confused as a kid as well.
I'm just surprised she didn't know what a gherkin was either.

I'll make it simpleA Gherkin is a nepalese soldier.
A Gurka is what Muslim women wear.
OK now?
