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?

(Actually, there's a couple that aren't Christmassy -
… but might make you smile and feel warm or ha…ppy)

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 ???) and others?

May your Christmas sparkle and shine
may your dreams and wishes come true

Ba do be dooooo

I think I found them all. I counted 10 Xmas Smile. Although, you do appear to have replaced one staple entry with a different live version. Not sure I approve...

tomatoflower · 24/12/2019 21:24

10 found, thank you once again Dan!

MillicentMartha · 24/12/2019 21:25

Did you find them all?

OP posts:
SyntheticPumpkin · 24/12/2019 21:54

I can only see 9 - how many are there?

There seems to be a large amount of text between two of the ones I’ve found so I wonder if there’s another hidden in there

DanFmDorking · 24/12/2019 22:04

Synthetic - There are more than 9 Xmas Smile
Sorry, I tried to distribute them evenly, didn't quite get it right.
Which was your favourite?

OP posts:
SyntheticPumpkin · 24/12/2019 22:09

Still can only find 9

Pascha · 24/12/2019 22:19
