Bung is the hole(s) in the lid or barrel. Usually two in each lid. There's a screw in cap, or bung plug that threads into the threaded holes.
And yeah, mini floods tend to happen to me as well. I now only make RODI when I'm home and use the timer on my kitchen stove as a reminder to go downstairs & check how things are filling up. Started making some water this morning & almost forgot to turn on the timer, doh, so even that's not foolproof when you get absentminded.
Chuckle, looks like you figured the bung thing out before I got done posting...
