Thanks for the missing ones.
Puzzled, though, as to what the
theme is for Category B
Any ideas, anyone?

Category b is a bit of a poser. Thought it might be charcters from
Christmas films, but nutcracker seems to be the odd one out all ways round.

BTW I'd caution if hello goodye is definitely correct.

There was also goodbye by the spice girls made it to Christmas number 1, so
could be either. I'm inclined to the latter, but am open to persuasion.

A wave could be a hello or goodbye

I agree, but it's usually one word (or part) per picture. That's what
inclines me the other way.
