And you seriously thought it would pan out any other way? :lol: I could hear the distant sound of pattering feet from the doom-and-gloom-room as soon as I read this thread's title. :)

I have also called it that before. Inhabitants of the room are the doom and gloomers.

First record of it is in a thread started in 2002! Though having read it ... I can't see the actual phrase.

Quite funny really - the parallels between that thread and this. They include this memorable quote, "You are planning to emigrate to Australia not Heaven."

:lol:

The dustbin lorry comes around at 6am sometimes - very inconsiderate. In fact, they actually collected at 7am on Christmas morning and the kids hadn't even opened their presents - wouldn't it have made sense to wait until Boxing Day :lol:

Oh, and a bird of prey dropped a dead rat outside our front steps this morning - that never happened in Bristol :ohmy:

In Bristol you were more likely to see a rat dropping a dead bird of prey on your doorstep. :D

Oh! That's a good one. The Wedge-tailed eagles knicked one of my chickens. Bastards :blink:
