I don't like going in Cathedrals or Churches. They give me the willies. Yeah those bad priests have given the whole thing a bad name. |

How do.
Still in work today. Been pretty busy.
Games - given up on cyberpunk. Considering deleting it & waiting as it’s taking up a whopping 104gb! Played some guacamele 2 and it’s brill. Also a little of Jedi fallen order which am liking but not loving.

I don't want to go off the deep end like Sheep, although I could, because if there's a church/mosque/temple (delete as applicable), castle, museum or any old ruin to see then I'm all over it. Let's say my parents breathed a sigh of relief when I was too old to go on family holidays with them.
So here's my top 5, in no particular order:
St Peter's Basilica, Rome
Notre Dame, Paris (also pre-conflagration)
Aachen Cathedral
Hagia Sophia, Istanbul
Umayyad Mosque, Damascus
Bonus church for my loyal customers:
Rosslyn Chapel!

Hagia Sophia is on our to do list. Constantinople or bust. Hopefully Greece in the near future as well, to tick off the last of the Classical world. |

We always called it Roslin Chapel (I grew up not too far from there). I don't know when people started calling it Rosslyn. I suspect Dan Brown is to blame, and/or those Holy Blood / Holy Grail lads.

Turkey Bolognese for dinner as we're probably not going to be having much turkey the next week or so.

Very wet day today, fortunately I had a very nice taxi driver who waited patiently as I was first picking up medicine from the pharmacy and then attempting to deliver a bag with clothes and reading material to the Pref.Mam. at the hospital. Turns out the taxi driver lives just around the corner, so he was probably glad that by the end of the job he was practically home.
Since no visitors are allowed, they now have a stall staffed by volunteers at the entrance where one can leave parcels etc. for hospital patients. My bag was too big, so I re-packaged the most important things into a plastic bag (sorry, Greta), that I've been told has already been delivered to the ward. It doesn't look good for the Pref.Mam. coming home for Xmas, but at least he's now being seen by the physio.

Sorry to hear that tenthenemy. Hope you can get to see PM soon. On the plus side he's a non gamer isn't he? This means you can spend more time in your pants chugging 2 litres of irn bru and subsiting entirely on toast and wotsits, the gamers delight. |

I’ve only been 190 hours on the Nintendo, a poor showing. Probably mostly animal crossing and a bit of dragon quest.
Morning all!
This afternoon I had full gaming on the tv, including Dirt and DMCV, both of which can be had for considerably cheaper than the psn via simplyganes. Dirt is nice enough and feels fairly arcadey and brainless. Top stuff. DMC is top banana, as ever.

On the plus side 48 straight hours of Animal Crossing is not to be turned down.

I'd really like to go to Haggia Sophia and St Basil's in Moscow.
I did not include castles, temples, ruined cities or barrows. You have to draw the line somewhere.
Like Hadrian did. I am reafimg The Empire Stops Here. About the borders of the Roman Empire. It has a fantastic set of ruins and remains in it. Probably a bit modern for TenthEnemy tho.

I also had my Nintendo end-of-the-year statistics.
My most played games in 2020 were
- Animal Crossing: New Horizons
- Dragon Quest Builders 2
- Pokémon Shield
- Glass Masquerade 2
This doesn't come as a surprise.
Total number of hours played:
1,186
I will say that there's no proof I was actually awake during these hours
Number of games played:
5
Yeah, that's the fault of the combination of 3 "I want to be your forever game" games. I've thought about playing other games. A lot. I feel bad about not having played other games.
Number of active days:
350/366
This is a disgrace. Must do better next year.
Hang on! There's still 8 days until the end of the year! Are these Matt Hancock's statistics?
I spent the most time playing on June 4th.
I don't remember that day. Apparently it was a Thursday.
And I enjoyed games from many different genres:
Multiplayer
Action
Adventure
RPG
Yes. Yes, I do.
