Well, here we are again, it's past 8pm, the smalls should be in bed, so for those with time on their hands here's something to keep you occupied.

Hidden in this message, I said HIDDEN, are various Christmas greetings.
What can you see? What can you find?

I would be grateful if rather than post 'the answer', one could 'PM' the particulars to the perplexed.

A thank you to the helpful Christmas Elves (Waltons are you here??)

  • May your Christmas sparkle and shine -
  • May your dreams and wishes come true -

Ba doo be dooooo

Oh clever! Well done DanFmDorking!

DanFmDorking · 25/12/2018 10:37

Thank you LittleLongDog
I'm glad you enjoyed them.
Did you get all 7?

CherryBlossom23 · 25/12/2018 10:43

Could I have a clue please? Does it definitely work on mobile (not app)?

Interested in this thread?

PM sent, CherryBlosson. I'm told it works fine on mobile.

Xmas Smile
CherryBlossom23 · 25/12/2018 10:59

I've had a hint but t's not working on my phone 😔

DanFmDorking · 25/12/2018 11:38

Sorry about that Cherry.
Can anyone else help?
Can you 'zoom in' a lot?
Or can you try on a Desktop?
Good Luck

Thanks to some early morning PMs I am now one of those people who suddenly get it. Hurrah at last!

I think an official clue would help start people off - I've thought of something and will PM Ben to see if it's of any use.

DanFmDorking · 25/12/2018 12:55

Ahhhhh Ben, I wonder if he'll like your clue Xmas Smile

SgtFredColon · 25/12/2018 13:55

I think I have seven! Thanks Dan

LemonRedwood · 25/12/2018 14:11

I need some help please! I have zoomed in on mobile and still have no idea what I'm looking for!

TheRhythmessCarolMan · 25/12/2018 14:23

So is it a magic eye thing or are we just counting how many different greetings we can find in that shmozzle ?
I'm doing it on eyephone.

TheRhythmessCarolMan · 25/12/2018 14:33

Oh. Just had a look at desktop version on my phone. App doesn't allow the hidden bits and bobs.
It would have been kind of useful to let us know this at the start. My eyeballs are now frazzled trying to look for a picture outline between all the words!

DanFmDorking · 25/12/2018 15:53

-Just come back from lunch-

DanFmDorking · 25/12/2018 16:23

TheRhythmessCarolMan how are you getting on?
Any luck?
I've send you a PM.

I’m flummoxed (again)...

Oohhaveabanana · 25/12/2018 16:42

Didn't work on app for me, but desktop and PM clue got me sorted. Found 6. Very cool. SmileSmile

ErrolTheDragon · 25/12/2018 17:07

I wonder why it doesn't work on the app for everyone - it's fine for me (iPad). Though I have also figured out how to cheat a bit.

Wingbing · 25/12/2018 17:11

I love these and I have never thanked you before, so thank you @DanFmDorking

Merry Christmas Xmas Wink

Waltons · 25/12/2018 17:56

PM sent, Pavlovian Xmas Smile

One more to go, banana

DanFmDorking · 25/12/2018 18:51

Thank you Wingbing that's very kind.
I'm glad you enjoy them.
Happy Christmas to you Xmas Smile
