The others I'm stuck on and think it's at the point that you either see them or don't.
I'm struggling with the:
1. the bottle of wine behind the sofa.
2. the rodent under the sofa
3. the wreath
4. the wand
5. bowl on the table
I've got a feeling that I don't have the 5 on the lampshade either as the obvious one is being rejected.
And that still leaves me 5 short where I cen't even see the sodding clue!!

 

[rustic]

Paw prints could be made by "tiger's feet" lol.
Well you need to "love your tiger feet" lol...

Black eyed Peas are one of the answers, but didn't link the clue, unless those tennis looking balls are peas lol... doubt that.

I stuck at it last night, and got a few more... so now on 87.

The rodent under the sofa is what you think it is, but has an extra letter.
The Wreath... try another spelling
The wand.... who uses a wand, and sings a great Xmas song.

I thought I had the bowl on the table, but now I think that that answer is for the foot prints.

I got the 3 balls... they are not balls, but a citrus fruit.
I got the 40 fabulous....
I got the green ornament... it's actually a Barbie from a big fruity city in America

The gold framed picture is confusing, as that is also the names on the book?

I worked out the melon, but it's not a group I have heard of, so put "Melon Band" into google, and found it.

The Broken Beaker was brilliant... It's not so much to do with what the object is, but what has happened to it.

Pink shoes is nothing to do with shoes, but what they are made from.

The thing on the centre shelf, is actually a muffin.

The Medal, I eventually worked that out, but again, I had never heard of the band, and used Google.

Now going to look at the other clues you gave me, and see if I can get those as well...

 

[Lazy-Ferret]

up to 95...

I think I am now missing

Band pictured on the calender
Plate of stuff on Table (Chicken drum sticks or Ginger maybe?) I originally thought it was clumps of wet dirt, but I now think that is the foot steps on the floor.
The yellow faces, on on chair end,
The yellow face on the tool box

The big 5 also needs it's colour, not Brown or red, but one beginning with M

The Books and the picture are different clues, one is more heavenly orientated than the ones with the betrayer.

 

[emjaybee]

I can finish it for you.

I've got those four.

I'm stuck on 87...

...I think my heads going to explode!

:banghead:

Band pictured on the calender What can you see on the calendar?

The yellow faces, on on chair end, Are those the citrus fruit heads?
The yellow face on the tool box

I've basically given up now, even with the clues given above. It's now a question of knowing or not as I can't guess...
I've failed.

I've failed.

There are possibly 4 bands on the calender.... Definitely 3..
The Yellow sticker face on the end of the chair, which I now realise I have, the Citrus fruit heads are the balls on the sofa.



Don't stop.... I am on 97.. only problem is, I don't know what clues I haven't got now...

A lot, I have put the clue into google, and been surprised, as I did not even know there was a group called that, especially Blind Melon, or Knife, and then the other way, I stupidly guess that Wings would be on there, but never worked out the clue that would get it... Spent ages trying to answer that clue, never linking the two.

I really am stuck now though.

 

[Lazy-Ferret]

Yeahhh... Finished and entered to win...

Well done.
Sling the answers up after closing date for entries, will ya?

No problem... Luckily I wrote them all down, as I got stuck on the last one and could not find any more logical clues... It turned out I did not have an answer for the keys. I thought I had answered but for some reason it was not there, so I guess must have done a typo, and it did not take it.

I then got Suz to do an entry as well... £250 Amazon gift voucher could be handy..:augie

 

[don simon]

Scrolling down the image page gives you a list of the band names and entries have closed. So, let's 'ave 'em then.

I'm well naffed off now.

I tried Red Hot Chilli Peppers, The Black Crowes, and they came back as a "fail". That means the only one I didn't get was Nsync.

There were a few I had to find an actual album cover picture to get the correct spelling, as when you put them into google, so many people spell them wrong regularly, they still come up with the wrong spelling.

Not sure why you did not get the Black Crowes though.

 

[don simon]

I was short changed by 4, so my total was 83. I would have maxed at 96 due to never ever hearing of the Decemberists or Cake or RATT.
The rest I know but couldn't see.
Thanks for putting me out of my misery.
Roll on next Christmas...

I kinda figured that as it was a "computer" input that the spellings would have to be spot on for the algorithm to register them, so anything "odd", Crowes etc. , I double checked.

It would appear there was an occasional glitch.

:nenau

Ho-hum.

Thanks for putting the answers up though. Good fun.
