This is my old puzzle Advent Calendar that was featured on CTC on Christmas Eve last year. Nowhere near as clever as AnalyticalNinja's recent Advent Calendar puzzle, but I'm still rather fond of it and had never got round to uploading it to LMD. So here it is...

Rules:

• Normal sudoku rules apply but using the digits 0-8 instead of 1-9.
• Find and colour the 24 hidden cages, which do not overlap. Each cage has a different total between 1 and 24 – the total for each cage is given on one of its cells (by a red clue).
• Digits MAY repeat within cages.
• All cages are triominoes (ie consist of 3 orthogonally connected cells) apart from one, which is a pentomino (containing 5 orthogonally connected cells.)
• Cells with a large snowball in the central 3x3 box count as double their value for the purposes of their cage totals (if they reside within a cage).
• Cells separated by a small white dot contain consecutive digits.
• Cells separated by a small black dot contain digits with a ratio of 1:2 (ie one is double the other.)
• Not all possible black and white dots are given.
