Today, we are a third of the way through the calendar. We've had some nice models so far, but still none that I've awarded the maximum score. Will today be the day for a 5 out of 5 score? And what will the model be? Read on to see what we got...
Yesterday's model took us to Zonko's - the famous joke shop in Hogsmeade. Will day 7 also give us something to laugh about? Read on to see what we got...
It is already 6 December - and that means we after today will have opened a quarter of the calendar doors. Yesterday we got another minifigure, Ron, so we'll probably get something else today - but what? Read on to see what we got...
From the warmth of Honeydukes, yesterday's model took us out back on to the cold snow-covered streets of Hogsmeade. Will today give us more landscape for the snow? Or will we finally get another character (hopefully dressed for the weather) to keep Harry company? Read on to see what we got...
At the end of day 3, Harry is still stuck at Honeydukes, eating his way through the goodies we've been given the last couple of days. What will day 4 give us? More sweets for Honeydukes, or someone to share them with? Or something else? Read on to see what we got...
Yesterday's model took us to Honeydukes - one of the favourite places for students in Hogsmeade. Will we get another model from the shop, or start populating a different store? Read on to see what we got...
The first model was Harry Potter - similar to what we got in both 2019 and 2020. Normally, after a minifigure, we would get something different for another day or two. But what will it be? And how many house points will it get? Read on to see…
Finally, the clock ticked over to 1 December (in my part of the world) and I can therefore, after months of anticipation, open the first door of the advent calendar. Has it been worth the wait? And how does it differ from previous years' calendars? Read on as we start the 2023 advent calendar review…
I know it is still November, and while the shops may have had Christmas decorations out for a while some places, it may still not quite feel like Christmas. But in a few days, the date will tick over to 1 December, and we can (finally) get started on the advent calendar. I will as usual cover it here on the blog...
Another year - and another birthday. All true Harry Potter fans know that 31 July is Harry Potter’s birthday, a day he shares with his creator JK Rowling. But it is also the date I started Blockwarts, which means a day of celebration for me as well. Not that there's that much activity lately to celebrate, but the love for Harry Potter and LEGO is still there...
