OK - I bit. For those dying to know, it's actually pretty easy. From the top of the Google list:
1. If necessary, soak the gammon (ham) in cold water to reduce saltiness, according to butcher or packet instructions (most do not need this anymore as curing methods have changed).
2. Weigh to calculate the cooking time.
3. Place in a large pan, cover with cold water and bring to the boil.

Boiled dinners are pretty big in Europe and it seems nearly all the top responses have a .UK or are UK related so I guess we have to depend upon our cousins to get it right. . .

P.S. We don't boil Lobster much up here - steaming is the way to go. Much easier and quicker too.

P.S.S. No worries here Miss Celllania - outside of soup, why would anyone boil a ham?
