Shall we restart this? I for one am struggling to think of anything, but it's a fun game.

A side challenge to this game should be to try to sneak the phrase "Sorry Mindy you've lost your bra" into an everyday conversation.

OK @SteveSmith, so you're creating a new 'game' by letting us guess what the word was. That could definitely be fun sometimes, especially if it's a word we can figure out, nothing too strange. However, when we can't get it (like the above entry) the thread could get messy and confusing, with players making guesses, requesting answers, and posting answers, potentially relating to previous entries, while the game has moved on to new images.

So my view is that if you're not going to say the answer then place it in spoilers so we can check the answer. That would be my preference. Otherwise, here I am saying "can you tell us the answer?" and you may reply with the answer before others have even had the chance to guess. So if it's not too obvious, you may as well just put it in spoilers, I reckon.

Thanks! For now I'm going to follow your game idea and always hide the word in a spoiler. Just a suggestion, but I think it looks neater and easier to understand if the spoiler is contained within the quote:
