Random Irritations

Latest COD update has knacked the game and it won't load ?
So much for getting up early for a quick blast before the missus rises.

I’ve had enough of the updates. Every time I switch it on there’s an update or a message saying not enough space to update.

Mw2 has been remastered and I’m leaning towards sacking this one off. I spent a good two years on that.
 
For the last two weeks, my heating pipes have been making a banging noise at ungodly o clock in the morning. It is a 5 second rattle, and then about 20 seconds off. It lasts for 10 minutes or so, then goes away, and comes back 20 minutes later. Stops at 9 ish.

The last few mornings, the heating isn't coming on, but same noise. Flipping annoying.

Just been up in the loft, (dangerous for me), nothing, but can still hear it. Boiler is fine.

Come down, say to the wife, it sounds like a woodpecker. Pecking the pipes. Odd. Then we think, TV aerial.

I go outside, and yep, there he is, a middle spotted woodpecker, smacking hell out of my tv aerial, at the top of an 8ft pole off the chimney.

Stunning bird, but can he do it somewhere else!

Mrs Wolf does it and doesn't like it if toast is cut anyway other than triangles. She says triangles make it taste nicer.

Takes me back to some happy memories... When I was still a lad (and yes I can remember that far back) if I spent a night back home and Mum made me a sandwich, to take to work, she insisted on cutting it into dainty triangles... Embarrassing or what? When it came to eating them in the works canteen ??...

Possibly even worse is cutting it in half lengthwise,
Special place in hell etc etc ?

I love Marmalade and I adore honey
So cut the toast in half (properly) and have half a slice each of my faves
lockdown bliss ?

.................... or toast two slices and have a whole piece of each.
Oh, tip of the day, grate some cheese over the honey and BOOOOOOOOOOOOOOM!

The season updates are a pain in he a$$ and it resets your ranking for some reason.
Finally got mine to work by resetting the xbox.
Even bigger random irritation, I've finished 2nd in Warzone Solo twice in two days now :cry:
