Grump !

Yes I certainly do. I was practically brought up in the old Swimming Baths in Perth, my mum worked there for years, she also ran one of the Weekly Swimming Clubs. They had 6 huge bathrooms along a wee corridor and I would sometimes use one on a Sunday Morning after I'd been to the Laundrette with my washing, those baths were double the size of house baths and I could hardly peek over the edge when lying back soaking. My wee flat was a far cry from what I was used to, it had no bathroom just a loo out in the close I shared with another person in the flat opposite mine.
Happy Days.

The public baths I'm talking about didn't have a swimming pool.  It was literally a building with a load of rooms in it with a bath in each one.  You paid on your way in, walked through a turnstile and went to your allocated room and had a bath.

Yes it was the same at the old Swimming Pool but you chose your own bathroom. There was an old Wash House and Bath House in the town, before my time, but it was demolished and the baths moved up to the Swimming Baths.

I seem to remember such a place in my childhood.  Didn't they call them 'slipper baths'?

Chiswick?  Is that somewhere in Scotland?

[Raven]

It certainly is not in Scotland.

It certainly is not in Scotland.   

But it ends in 'wick', so it sounds Scottish.

Cheese village.

Cheese village.

Can't think of a Scottish cheese.
Just looked it up: there are lots.  I like the sound of these two:

Marangie Brie
Minger Cheese

though the last one doesn't sound particularly nice.
