Random Irritations

The Hotmail junk folder message "we couldn't find anything to show here" with the smiley face.

Of course you couldn't find anything to display because I've just deleted 8 junk emails from that folder.
 
The best laid plans of golfers :mad: often gang awa.
The master plan was 9 am Saturday morning 8 of us 2 cars drive down to the borders and play the Roxburgh GC using our free Golf Show vouchers .
We paid a wee bit extra to book a few weeks in advance and for 4 drive on buggies.
As we were about to leave the weather turned :eek:, so we phoned the Pro and already the buggies were off and there was some standing water, and could possibly close if the rain continued to fall.
So decision time, do we drive around 2 hours and arrive to find the course is or going to be closed.

We decide to just head straight to our pre-booked Sunday venue at Royal Musselburgh GC. We had booked the local Premier Inn for a Saturday afternoon check in anyway.
Brainwave I called my pal who is the starter at the Old Musselburgh Links,[ the oldest links course in the world ], no problem he said we've no comps on to day and the course is open , you lot can go out around 12.30 as we have a few going out before that :love:.
An hour later we arrive and course is open we can see some guys out playing .
So a after a coffee and a bacon roll in the clubhouse, the heavens opened, guess what LINKS COURSE CLOSED, ALL GREENS FLOODED :eek:.
Depression was starting set in, we discussed maybe going back home as the Royal might even be closed on Sunday if the rain kept up like it was.
After much debate, checking the forecast and a promise that we could play the Old links course if the Royal was closed, so we decided to stay and book in to the hotel.
Straight to the local pub for a few hours, then back to hotel for grub and more refreshments, back to the pub and stayed till 1 pm [ great preparation for golf lol ]

Sunday tee time at the Royal was 1.30, but it started raining again, we decided to go to the course early in case it was closed or about, fortunately it was open'

After some debate with the pro, he let us out an hour early, and bingo the Sun came out a result at at last.

As for the golf 48 points by a young shark, me 4th with a mere 32 points, i was a lot better at the pub karaoke.

We still have our tickets for Roxburgh GC to use at a later date, so fingers crossed.
 
EE WiFi. Mrs Wolf in her infinite wisdom decides to switch us from BT to EE as they had a better offer on, promised better speeds and service. We've had it 3 weeks I've already had to buy a booster to get it throughout the house, it crashes daily when doing anything and they're service is garbage..

I bought a TP link deco m9 plus system during the prime sale £200 down from £270

I plug an Ethernet cable from my router (BT) and I have disabled my bt WiFi .. the deco has 2 units, they sent out 2.4ghz and 5ghz broadband over the same band (can’t be split but smartly let’s the devices who can’t use 5 have 2 and such) anyways it covers your house in wifi

The 2 units talk to each other and send signal all round the house

I got it for when we have loft done.. one in living room, one in current master bed room.. boosts the WiFi to the loft no issue

Got loads of extra features like anti virus, parental controls etc for the WiFi system

So much better than the standard routers I’d say 👌
 
Literally just off the phone with them now, cancelled and sending the box and router back 😒.
Now to find a new provider. BT most likely getting my business again as they were easy to deal with.

I'd go with virgin if you are a new customer, but ONLY if you are a NEW CUSTOMER
 
Why, just why do these people have to exist. They irritate the life out of me, even more so knowing how much that kids is now worth 😠
Now even has his own range of toys out!

Latest figures i saw, net worth circa $80million.... wow.
