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

Thanks Errol. Followed your steps and have read pms (thank you both). Not sure if I have it right as not come across any foxes (pp said it was their fave one) but I have found something so assume that is the game. Only found 5 though so the remaining ones must be tiny.

AnneOfCleavage · 27/12/2018 00:35

Yay! Have found them all inc the fox one - that was the hardest one to find I found. Thank you Dan 🎄🎅🏻👏

Otterseatpuffinsdontthey · 28/12/2018 16:59

Love puzzles - would someone be kind enough to pm me about this one? Confused

3catsandcounting · 28/12/2018 18:08

Right, I've found a difference in the text, but that can't be it? Can I work it out on an iPad? What I have makes no sense. 😩

Oh, oh, I think I've cracked it Dan! But it's late, I'll have a proper look in the morning.

Slightlyjaded · 29/12/2018 01:13

No idea how to begin but fascinated....

OddlyDesserted · 29/12/2018 09:12

I'm intrigued! Can someone please PM me? Thanks!

PinkDaydreams · 29/12/2018 09:24

I can see a few letters in blue but that doesn’t seem to be helping me?!

Shockers · 29/12/2018 09:46

I don’t understand! Please could someone explain?

Hello, I love puzzles but I’m stuck! Can anyone help me out? I’ve written down what I’ve seen so far but can’t make sense of it. Thank you!

Iputthescrewinthetuna · 29/12/2018 11:13

What on earth? Can u please PM me too

SheWhoDaresGins2 · 29/12/2018 11:43

I missed this this year. How did I miss it I love them.

Anyway.

I got all 7. The last one was the trickiest but found it eventually and was the best IMHO, always love the cards.

Thanks as always Dan, hope you and the family had a good one and all the best for 2019 x

3catsandcounting · 29/12/2018 11:43

Dan, got 6 but the last one is really foxing me! 😉

Love the 'Christmas Lights' one. Two of them properly made me well up.

Brilliant. Thank you.
