Default Plumbers Crack

Apparently the expression "Plumbers Crack" is now officially in the Oxford
English Dictionary.

Other expressions noted are "plumber's cleavage" (and "brickie's cleavage"),
"refrigerator repairman's bottom", and "electrician's butt". In Australia
it's the "coin slot", or "builder's smile". In Dutch its
"bouwvakkersdecolleté", which translates into English
as "builder's cleavage"

So now you know.................
