A plaster lined hot tub as opposed to the Big Sur style redwood ones,
usually built into the pool area but as a separate but connected entity.

I know "...and what's a Big Sur?"

>A bibby , a 'pinny' ?

Never was defined. "You bet your bippy" was a favorite phrase on Rowan &
Martin's "Laugh In" in the late 60's. A lot of stars started there, best
known is Goldie Hawn.

..And a "sliced tomato" in restaurant talk is a "Marie Antoinette"

Ok, we're off track now and someone will complain that we're not serious
