In just two days (on what really ought to be Llew’s birthday) it’s international chocolate day. I can’t say I eat much of the stuff, but when the mood hits me, I can be a right chocoholic. I’m not especially fond of milk chocolate – it’s far too sweet for my liking. I’m far more partial to the darker stuff, which matches my demeanour; it’s bitter. How do you like your chocolate?

In Other News: SEGA increases its Amplitude, the Dark Sword gets nerfed, Splatoon gets copied and Xbox Live Avatars will soon get wheelchairs.

Here’s the news we didn’t post because we were too busy wondering how to spend our Bison dollars.

      Dark chocolate is the best. You probably like your chocolate raw.

    The Beyers chocolatiers factory shop is a km or 2 away from me. That’s a dangerous place to visit.

          no clue. Haven’t dared enter.
          But they do chocolate making courses there. So I just kind of don’t tempt myself
