Well, here we are again, it's past 8pm, the smalls should be in bed, so here's something to keep you occupied.

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

(Actually, there's a few that aren't Christmassy at all but might make you smile)

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

“For all those finding it difficult: the sun will shine on you again and the clouds will go away” - Captain Sir Tom.

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

Ba do be dooooo

I have 12 so far including the final one. Must keep looking!

Alchemistress · 25/12/2023 08:20

I’ve seen you do this for years Dan and I’ve never got it. This year I finally did it off my own bat! Brilliant! Going to go back and find other years ones now I think!
Loved it. Thanks for doing this - was lots of fun. Think Ian Wright is my favourite. Always gets me in the feels.
Merry Christmas one and all!

drspouse · 25/12/2023 08:21

Actually I had them all, I just hadn't counted properly.
Hint: use the app, I find it much more obvious.

Interested in this thread?

I find it easier in the browser, on a tablet with the text expanded a bit.

Awww, the Ernie Ford one... not sure if I'm laughing or crying, but I love it. Hilarious watching him trying to hold it together, but the sweetness, joy and the innocence is doing something to me...❤️

SeeSawSeen · 25/12/2023 13:31

Also, and where are my manners... thank you @DanFmDorking!

FrippEnos · 25/12/2023 14:07

I love the Ernie Ford one. Just brilliant

That was my favourite too! The other children were so disapproving too!

Thank you! Yes I've just been watching 😁. I love the lone Welsh fan singing
