Yes, strangely, the word "bit" can refer to one of many things - your brain, for example. Could you be a "bit" more specific?

You know, the "general outpourings" bit.

How can you lose an entire forum.

That reminds me of a story I heard about an absent-minded maths teacher. One morning his wife said to him: "Remember that we are moving house today, so when you come home from work, walk to the new house, not the old one." She wrote the new address on an old envelope and handed it to him.

That day at school, the teacher was helpfully explaining something to one of his students, and wrote how to solve a problem on the envelope, and gave it to the student. That evening, when he arrived "home", he found an empty house, and remembered what his wife had told him, and realised that he had given away the address.

Knowing that the new home was close by, he began walking through the neighbourhood. He spotted a young lad and asked him: "Sonny, can you help me? We have just moved home. Have you seen anyone moving into a new house around here?"

The lad replied: "Yes, it's just round the corner. Mum told me to go looking for you, Dad."

This may be very unladylike, but the emboldened word should begin with a 'b'!  ;D

I wouldn't have expected you to agree to that, Peter, not in the literal sense at least.

Think Tarks ought to look into this.
He may get withdrawal symptoms if not.
