Morning all.
I need a little help here. Where I was born, the house, there was a pipe that went from the baht, through the wall out into the garden and when you pulled the plug out of the bath tub the water ran out into the (thingie) in the garden. What was the pipe called and what's the word for the water running out and away) and what is the name of the (thingie) outside?

Drain? Drainpipe? I'd just call the used water, "bathwater" I think. But the drain is the place the water runs away into, whether it's the hole in the bath or the hole outside. There are a lot of more technical words for some of these things, but I don't think that's what you're after really.
