A simple game, known as 'Missing Vowels', which is probably familiar to many of you especially if you watch 'Only Connect' on a Monday evening. Players are given a theme as a clue to the answers then various words and phrases are spelt out omitting the vowels. I have done the first few to show how it works for anybody who doesn't already know it. The theme (surprise, surprise) is 'Christmas' and once we've exhausted Christmassy words and phrases somebody can then suggest a new, more challenging theme, anything goes... authors' names, capital cities, flowers, artists etc, etc

Probably was a mistake Ana..... knowing me!

Ana Thu 18-Dec-14 18:26:14

(I thought that was a mistake, and it was meant to be Mary's Boy Child...perhaps not!)

Chestnuts roasting on an open fire
(I think your previous one was meant to be 'Jesus Boy Child' )
