Connections - festive fun and frustration

[ThePoshUns]

New thread. I wish I'd kept count..

And posting with an early one!! I actually screen shot the first answer screen as it was an obvious red herring and I was going to share but it turns out it wasn't!!!

I failed to avoid it

Yellow and purple were guesses. I had a different idea for the purple connection.

I avoided yellow, giving myself a pat on the back. Until it was yellow by default 😄

What is yellow? I'm too many drinks down on Christmas eve to play this game and fully understand it. Lucky guessing got me through.
