I only found this out the other day
"belm n. Expression of doubt / disbelief (pre-chinny-reckon). Nearly always accompanied by the speaker putting his /her tongue between the bottom teeth and the bottom lip / chin area causing a 'bulging' effect. The longer the 'belm' the better e.g. 'beeeeeeelllllmmmmm' in a kind of 'spaz' voice. c.f. chinny-reck-on circa 1978-ish UK (NW) "

(I always thought it was something much ruder)

you swallowed the dictionary this morning? or did it get stuck under your lower lip to create a belm?

I'd been reading it so much on the board and thinking it was something very rude, so thought I really should find out what it meant. I was surprised to find that it was something pure and innocent.
Just like me.

many times I've stopped myself from using that joke on the board.

I wouldn't be brave enough to use a pun that bad.

My norks remained chaste at all times throughout said discussion. It was all you dirty male types that were sullying their natural beauty.

but the mere fact you admit we were discussing the possibility of a nork display in RH6 makes a mockery of your "pure and innocent" statement.
And yes he was there as well
