Think I should probably do a games of the year list:
1. Astro Bot
2. Final Fantasy 7 Rebirth
3. Still Wakes The Deep
4. Thank Goodness You’re Here
5. Paper Mario: The Thousand Year Door
Plenty of great games this year, but looking at my completed list, I mostly played older games I bought cheaply.

Out on my birthday for some #ukhockey. Edinburgh Capitals vs Kirkcaldy Kestrels in the Scottish Cup Semi Final. End of the 1st, 1-0 to Kirkcaldy. An entirely unremarkable period other than Kestrels scoring 20 seconds before the end. Crowd weirdly quiet too. #icehockey #edinburghcapitals #kirkcaldy

Day 5: Saracosa. Sangiovese blend. Italy
What’s this? A red I… like? Maybe it’s because it went well with what I was having for dinner, but actually not horrible. 7/10.

Day 4: Barón De Barbón. Rioja Blanco. Spain.
Finally, a white! (As I believe Nigel Farage says). There’s some weird aftertaste here that I’m not sure about. It’s quite lime-y and citrusy. Alfie was very interested in being in the photo. Still, best one so far. 6/10.

Day 3 - Cabalié 2023. Grenache based blend.
This is the third red in a row, and I am becoming increasingly worried that I have accidentally ordered a red wine calendar.

Day 2: Il Papavero, Vino Rosso (blend), Italy. According to the Laithwaites website, this is one of the most popular reds they sell. I think it smells very heavily of cherries. But at least it doesn’t linger on the palate. Is it better than yesterday? Eh, guess not. 4/10.

For the last two years on Facebook I have reviewed wine advent calendars. Going to also post my thoughts on here.
A couple of pointers before we get started:
1. I tried to buy just the white wine calendar, I had it in my basket, but when I went to check out it had sold out.

The nice man at the Christmas market gave my pregnant wife a can of IPA to have ‘for when the baby comes’. Support local breweries.

END OF THE THIRD PERIOD
Capitals 4 - 3 Pirates
A deserved goal from King saw Caps take the lead, before 2 in quick succession saw the Pirates pull ahead. 2 further goals from Lynch and Gautchi gave Caps the deserved victory. #EdinburghCapitals #PaisleyPirates #ukhockey #hockey

END OF THE SECOND PERIOD
Capitals 1 - 1 Pirates
An excellent top shelf goal from the Pirates takes the score level. I should point out though this is the second leg of a cup game, so the aggregate is currently 6-3 to the Caps. #EdinburghCapitals #PaisleyPirates #ukhockey #hockey

END OF THE FIRST PERIOD

Quite an even first period with both goalies making some huge saves. Lynch scored the opener from behind the net, with what looked like from where I was sat, a deflection off the goalies backside. #EdinburghCapitals #PaisleyPirates #ukhockey #hockey

A wet wintery day in Edinburgh today, think the rink is warmer than outside! I’ll do some end of period updates. #EdinburghCapitals #PaisleyPirates #ukhockey #hockey

Finally hit level 50 in #PokemonGo. And shiny Toxtricity with the special background was the thing that gave me the xp to hit the level cap. 8 years of wasting my life, right there.

I’ve found a Uk Ice Hockey feed, which is nice as neither my Edinburgh Capitals nor my Swindon Wildcats are on Bluesky yet. Please pester them on ‘the other site’ so they make accoutns. bsky.app/profile/did:...

@cheapshow.bsky.social I’ve been going through Cheapshow episodes in reverse order, and in episode 4, Eli mocks you for your speech and mentions scratch and sniff. Within 10 minutes of the latest episode he does exactly the same thing. The more things change, eh…

@cheapshow.bsky.social I hope that Out Of Context Cheapshow bot comes back. That was a good bot. I loved scrolling through and seeing ‘I TOOK FOUR VIAGRA AND WENT TO THE ZOO’ suddenly appear.
