Gambe d'oro...
This is a new addition to the list of nicknames that I have been given over the years (some previous ones include stretch, skinny bones, red and carrot top.)
The translation...here's a little clue.
"The Golden Compass", the first novel in Philip Pullman's trilogy "His Dark Materials," translates to "La Bussola D'Oro" in Italian (which was actually the first movie I saw in an Italian cinema).
D'oro = of gold
Gambe = legs
So I am now referred to as "Legs of Gold" or "Golden Legs" by one of the regulars at Enoteca Drago.
and I am just fine with that.
